Beta #2 Results

Beta #1 on 9-14-12:  67
Beta #2 on 9-21-12:  1291


That's a doubling time of 39.36 hours to those of you who understand the terminology.  (I'm still figuring out the hCG levels and such myself)

My estrogen is 168 and progesterone is 67.  For now, I will stay on my Estrace 2mg twice daily and PIO injection 2cc each evening.

From the beta numbers it looks like there's one Baby Sneakers, but we are excited nonetheless.  =)  After waiting so long, we are pregnant.  Today's numbers are definitely reassuring.

We are scheduled for our first ultrasound next Friday!

  5. Our beta numbers predicted triplets and it was just one. Beta results can be all over the board. Glad to see such great results!

  6. That is so awesome!!!! I remember spending days stressing over my HCG numbers and the only conclusion I came to, is everyone's are different and it is really hard to compare. Can't wait to see the first ultrasound pic :)
