Another update - 2nd beta (was $tree vs. digital)

My 2nd beta results today: 172.  So it looks like this is it.

1st beta = 69, 2nd beta = 172; doubling time 34.91 hours.  I have an ultrasound scheduled for October 6 to rule out ectopic.  Not that I have a magic 8 ball abdomen, but I just don't feel like this is ectopic.  No symptoms from what Dr. Google tells me go with ectopic pregnancy.  So far, just overall intermittent cramping and some nausea.

Anyone else 4 weeks along?

    Congrats!  I am also in my 4th week and have cramping and a little nausea in the morning (same as with DS).  The nausea was the first clue I was pregnant.

    Congrats to you on the great beta!!! What wonderful news. 

    Just a little bit of advice, Dr. Google is not your friend! Step away if you can!
