Beta update

Jennifer Bliss-Wohlers

So my beta on Thursday was 10,000 and my beta Saturday was 15,019.

What do ya'll think? Acceptable increase? Are my levels just slowing down because I'm almost at 7 weeks?

The secretary gave me the reults and the doc wasn't available to answer the question. I thought I'd check with my "experts"!

Off to work now.... I'll be home at 1:30 am. Yuck. I'll check in tomorrow.

I'm not really sure, but I would think that if it wasn't right the doc would've called you? Waiting sucks. (hugs)

Very much so b/c BETAs slow down after 6 wks.

Exactly- some people never get much above 20,000 their entire pregnancy in beta's. I'd say your numbers are fine!

Mine slowed down significantly (I doubled twice in a week) last time. I was 5w4d, with a beta of 4055, one week later I was 16554 so I think that is fine. Did they test progesterone as well?

Sounds fine to me...the numbers dont always double once they get that high. Congrats! When do you have your next u/s?
