Hcg levels dropped but ultrasound is good

Hey ladies - I'm totally confused and apparently so is my doctor. I'm trying to be positive but I just feel like this ominous cloud over my head will begin to start pouring rain...I'm 6 weeks preggers, had hcg levels taken last week. First was 4,500 (aprox), then a few days later it was 4,100, then a few days after that it was the same - 4,100. I thought for sure I'd be starting to miscarry soon. So went in for a scan today and saw the baby's heartbeat and it measured 6 weeks, as it is supposed to be. My doc was saying he just doesn't know what's going on but everything looks good. He said I'm quite the challenge because he can't figure it out. I'm very skeptical because I've had 3 mc's and anticipated I would soon have my 4th ...I still feel like I might...it just doesn't make sense. I took another blood test today and will get results soon...and another scan next week. I just wanted to know if any of you have had any experience with this?

Sorry havent had any experience of hcg levels falling but all ok on scan. I have had 3mcs before I had my ds (13 months) but if you see heartbeat I believe chances of mc fall dramatically. Sorry not to be more help but am keeping everything crossed for you that this one is here to stay. xxx
