Beta #2 (posted on TTC after 35 too)

Is 320, it didnt double but its more than 60% which is what they want to see.  I cant help but feel worried right now because it didnt double.  I asked my nurse if this is something I should be worried about and she said no, as long as it increases by 60% its good.  She also said my Re believes that this is the one for us so I'm thinking that if it was bad she would not have said that on the phone.  She kept saying congratulations.  

They dont want me to come back till next Sunday for b/w and first u/s to make sure there's a sak etc, that everything is there.

I wish I could make myself stop worrying and just relax.

It sounds like your RE is pretty confident, but I know it's hard not to worry.  Hang in there and we'll all send good vibes and keep everything crossed for you!

my 2nd beta on friday was only 136.4, so i think what your nurse/RE are telling you is probably right. i think when the numbers are lower, like mine, they might look for doubling numbers.

worrying isn't going to make it better, that is for sure. find something else to distract your mind, b/c you don't want the stress of all that negative thought. nothing good comes from that.

i think that your beta number is great, it is showing an upward trend--focus on that!

Hang in there!  I would hope your RE's offce would be honest with you if they thought something was wrong. Good Luck at the next b/w and u/s!

Hang in there and try not to stress too much.  I know that's ALOT easier said than done, but my experience is that RE's (and their nurses) are very careful about giving false hope.  They wouldn't have said Congratulations and not to worry about it unless they believed it to be true.
