Pregnant after IF

Beta # 2 (Almost Doubled)

My first beta was 379.  Today's beta (48 hours later) was 744 (doubling would've been 758).  The doctor said this is totally fine and normal.  She said as long as the number is higher  than 67% of the doubling number in 48 hours, it's fine.

I guess I'm just nervous.  Still excited, but nervous. 

My next beta is set for Monday, so any vibes that you can spare would be great!

  • Looks like a great rise! As you can see from my siggy, my betas never doubled in 48 hours. My nurse said I should ignore the Internet, as they only wanted a 60% rise in 48 hours. You are well over that one! FX for a great 3rd beta!

  • If I remember correctly, it only has to double every 48-72 hours.  Those sound like good numbers to me!   Congrats!
  • Thanks everyone! Ruthie and Amandaleigh thanks for sharing your experiences. It makes me feel better and confident that this is okay!
