Hi @mispanda! I'm so sorry you're stressing out, I've definitely been there. I wasn't under the care of an RE, but my OB said doubling in 48-72 hours is acceptable -- so if you go by 72 hours, you're not as far off as it may seem at first glance. I'll be crossing my fingers so hard for you, and talk as much as you need to right here!
Also I think we have the same EDD - I haven't had a u/s yet, but I'm guessing it'll be 4/1 or 4/2.
@hedgepig I think I'm going to stay here as I'll be having a repeat csection in late March, though I'm super tempted to move to April since bringing up the rear kinda sucks. I'm super jealous of everyone that's so much further along than me!
@mispanda I'm so sorry you feel like you're in limbo right now, but since your numbers are increasing I think there are reasons to stay hopeful. I hope they continue to rise! And of course, you're totally welcome to hang out in March whenever you feel like it
@mispanda FX for Friday! An increase is a good sign so you could just have a slow riser.
@kmalls I totally feel you on the late due date. I feel so behind much of the board. And with DD I was a week late, so if that happens again I will be April.

@mispanda congrats!! If it gives you some comfort, my first beta was 421 and 48 later was 810. Mine did not double either, but my RE wasn't concerned in the slightest and also said they look for a 60% increase. I went in 4 days later and my betas shot to 5023 (more than doubling every 48). You might just be a little slower like me. Hoping for you!!
@mispanda Did you get results for your betas yesterday? Thinking of you... Edit: and by yesterday I clearly meant today, because apparently I don't know what day it is...

@hedgepig no not yet. I went in right as they opened this morning and my order had stat on it so I'm just waiting for the RE office to call me soon. My nerves are getting the best of me right now.
@mispanda Ah jeez, waiting on something like that is the worst. FX so hard for good news! I hope you have something you can do to take your mind off of the waiting...

I stopped posting on this thread because I was having trouble keeping up but @mispanda fingers crossed for you! Mine did not double either but just had my second ultrasound at 8.5 weeks and all is well!! Praying you get good news!
Thanks for all the well wishes ladies. I finally got my results! There is a little weight off my shoulders now. 1st: 249 2nd: 380 3rd: 832
So my 3rd beta was much better than the second. I feel like they are low but I realize everyone is different so I'm trying to not compare which is harder than I thought. They went ahead and scheduled my 6 week and 8 week ultrasound. The nurse asked me if I wanted to do another lab on Monday but I declined because numbers stress me out.
Those are great numbers @mispanda and I admire you for turning down the extra stress about testing Betas again. Hopefully the six week u/s gets here quickly!
Ugh I think I'm going to make the jump to April after all, or at least post in both. I'm so far behind most people here and I feel like my sanity will be helped over on that board (the ultrasound thread here, while awesome, just serves as a reminder of how much further I have to go!). Boo!
*lurking from outside the TTGP grad space* @kmalls, I was due at the very end of my last BMB and I totally understand the feeling! We'd be sad to see you go, so I hope you post in both!!
@kmalls Don't leave us! Jk I totally understand. I kinda thought about it too but decided 3/27 wasn't close enough to April. Though I was a week late with DD...

@kmalls I'd do the same! I started in Feb too because I'll likely have a Feb baby but I much prefer being on the early end of things than the late end of things! We'll miss you!
Re: TTGP Grad check in 7/20
Also I think we have the same EDD - I haven't had a u/s yet, but I'm guessing it'll be 4/1 or 4/2.
