Question

Is this bad??? Anyone know?

2 days ago I had 3 positive pregnancy tests. I went into doctor yesterday for blood work, i called them today and they said my blood was positive for hcg but was a low number of 23. They want me to go back in for more blood work to see if it rises, could this be bad?

How many dpo are you? The number itself generally isn't that important, it's seeing the number double every 2-3 days that's most important. That said, at 14 dpo doctors generally like to see levels in the 50-100 area. Of course if you're earlier than that you'd expect levels to be lower - they all start out low, after all! And the 50-100 is just a rule of thumb, plenty of women have low levels and go on to have perfectly healthy pregnancies. Unfortunately all you can really do is wait for the next blood test and see how the levels do - hoping for a good result for you!

Thank you :) they want me to go in tomorrow or Friday. I'm going to go tomorrow. I'm guessing between 9-11 dpo. My last period was Oct 25th.
