We got our BFP last week (still can't officially add it to my ticker yet) after 2 losses in 2011.
First beta was 97 and 2nd was 303 (72 hours later), which they said was good. She said if I wanted to keep checking the betas, we could but that it was up to me. I am scheduled for my first u/s at 7 weeks.
Wondering what the rest of you have experienced? TIA!
Re: How many betas did you have?
Congrats!
On my first pregnancy, I was checked twice, 48 hours apart. With my second pregnancy, I did 5, all 48 hours apart, but that was because the rise from my first to second was sluggish (25 to 38). This time, I went from 65 to 193 in 48 hours and my RE was happy with that.
You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
I just got my betas today.First one was 900 second one 4 days later was 4,836. The nurse said this is good, but I'm honestly clueless about betas. I tried googling, but that was a bad idea. Can you ladies shed some light??

Congrats! ...and the same thing Roxy said.
Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
I had two drawn almost exactly 48 hrs apart and since they were doubling fine we didn't check anymore. I just went in a few wks later for u/s. Generally, if you are doubling within 48-72 hrs there isnt cause for alarm. Here is a good tool to check your doubling time :https://www.betabase.info/doublingCalc.php
Good luck

My RE did 4. They all looked good, but the first two were very early (like 11 dpo and 13 dpo) which may be why he wanted to do a few more. He wanted the numbers to be above 2000 before he scheduled the first ultrasound. Good luck!
