Hi,

I just wanted to offer hugs and to say the doctor yesterday told me doubling or almost doubling was good, falling would be a m/c and staying around the same would suggest an ectopic pregnancy.

Thanks Tasha - the hospital did tell me not to panic but of course when you hear that you do lol

I was told that they like to see numbers rise 66% for 48 hours. Your numbers look good to me! Everyone's numbers vary so much it can be hard to figure out what exact day you are on. Some women implant early or some implant very late which will make numbers seem higher or lower than other womens if you compare them. Also - everyone's numbers vary with how fast they rise. Even the same woman can have her numbers do a slow rise and then two days later they more than double - its not an exact science.

Kaybel - most women dont have hormone levels checked. Unless you are having problems or are unsure of dates. Ultrasounds are usually more accurate than blood tests though for determining dates.
