Betas (hcg) should double every 48-72 hours.
Last time we did IVF, my first labs were when I was 3 weeks and 6 days pregnant. My beta (hcg) was 50. Since it was Thanksgiving, we didn't get to recheck my labs until I was 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant. My beta (hcg) was 206. My beta was doubling every 58.75 hours.
This time, at 4 weeks 0 days pregnant, my beta (hcg) was 354. At 4 weeks 2 days, my beta was 690. This is a doubling time of 49.85 hours.
Both are normal. My numbers are much higher this time. I know I implanted sooner this time. I implanted on the late side last time.
Last time, the baby stopped growing at 7 weeks and I miscarried at 10 weeks.
I pray for a healthy pregnancy! More than one doctor said there is no reason to think it will happen again. I am going to be nervous until I get past 8 weeks.
I have a better feeling this time. I cannot wait for the first ultrasound! I can't wait to see the heartbeat(s)!
Continued prayers are appreciated!!!
Thanks!
