Hi,
You should do home pregnancy test on the day of the missed period. If you want to do beta HCG levels you should also do them at 4 weeks that is the day of the missed period, and repeat them after 48 hours.
Your previous pregnancy HCG levels would have been back to non pregnant levels by 20 days after the miscarriage so you have nothing to worry about, as you are way past that time.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
