Are my HCG & progesterone levels normal?

I went to the doc`s on Monday to confirm my pregnancy and have bloodwork done to check my hormone levels. I know I was exactly 12 DPO because I was charting and know the exact date of ovulation. My HCG came back 298 and my progesterone was 15. I was wondering if these levels are normal? The nurse seemed to indicate they seemed a bit low, but from everything I`ve read online they seem a lot higher than normal for 12 DPO. Do any of you know what your levels were at this early in pregnancy? Thanks!

I think He said they were supposed to double every 48 hours and they didnt and I miscarried. So 298 at 12 dpo is great. As long as its doubling. good luck and let me know what happens.

They asked me to come back in a few days or a week (I can't remember) and the hcg had went up to like 1,200 which still wasnt great but showed it was increasing. Well 34 weeks later here I am having a healthy baby girl! Good Luck :)
