I had my Beta #1 on Friday 2/21 (9dp5dt). This is 1 day earlier than my clinic normally tests, but the lab is not open on the weekend. My results was 75. Estrogen was 624 and progesterone was 148. I discontinued my progesterone shots and was not on any estrogen this round. SO GOOD!!!
Beta #2 was yesterday 2/24 (72 hours later) and the result was 241. It more than doubled in 72 hours...so that is good.
They do not need/want me to come back until my ultrasound on March 13th. I have been scanning the internet on HCG results and feel like mine are low. My clinics told me they are just fine.
Shouldn't I have a 3rd beta test?? I am worried something is wrong, even though the clinic its telling me its fine. I feel like I am in the 2WW again!!!!!

Re: Does everyone do a Beta #3 ????? ********warning BFP mention*********
My clinic does do a third beta (mine is tomorrow). The nurse that does the blood draw at my clinic also did IVF there so I always review my numbers with her for additional piece of mind/what number I want to hear when they call.
To me your numbers sound great! Good luck!
