Hello ladies. I have been a lurker but decided to reach out finally to see if anyone has any clues.
I am around 8 weeks pregnant with absolutely no symptoms except increased hunger and peeing. No cramping, bleeding etc. Last week wk 7 I went for an ultrasound and the doctor could not find a baby or a heartbeat so she sent me to get blood tests done. My first test had a HCG of 29000 and Progesterone of 22 and the second test conducted 48 hrs later had a HCG level of 34000 and Progesterone of 15.4. I am waiting to go in for the next ultrasound but I am extremely anxious to know whether my baby is ok. Please help!!!

Sorry to say that it does not look hopeful. Progesterone going down, with non-doubling hcg and no clear heartbeat at 7 weeks. It is possible that all will still be ok, but the signs are not good.
I hope you get your next scan soon. Waiting to find out is a tough time. Let us know how things go.
