It's totally normal to feel no symptoms.  Do also understand, though, that a 1544 hCG level does not mean you are an exact number of weeks pregnant, the ranges of normal (when you look at an hCG chart) of hCG levels as related to what point in pregnancy, are very wide.  Also, get used to the idea, foreign as it is at first, that 'weeks pregnant' are counted by your doctor as beginning at the first day of your last period, not as beginning the day you conceived.  If you are saying it's been two weeks since conception, your doctor would call that 4 weeks gestational age, and all your ultrasounds, 'pregnancy week by week' charts, nurses, research reports, med techs, midwives and everyone medical, uses that method of counting.  I know it means the first two weeks you aren't even pregnant yet, but they do it that way to come to a 40 week pregnancy (when it is only 266 days from conception to full term) because that s historically how it was counted in the days before ultrasounds..
