Beta was 260. Or maybe it was 270. I was a little flustered. I think 260, though. I had to ask a second time. I think I said, "Can you tell me that number again because I was totally not paying attention?" and the nurse laughed and said I was cute. I said, "No way, just telling the truth."

Wow, they are way nicer to you on the phone when you are pregnant.

Also, they apparently don't do repeat betas at my clinic unless your intial is under 100. Most places do 2 or 3. They said I could ask for another if I am feeling like I need one. They do not know how neurotic I am. HA! (Seriously, though, I am trying not to ask for one.) Ultrasound on the 7th (5w6d). Good times.

I go out of town for a couple of days to visit my parents, skim posts when I get back, and totally miss the Big News? *beats head on desk*

Congrats to you! *big hugs* Best wishes on everything going smoothly. I know you've wanted this badly. :D

Heh. I'm already sitting here wondering if I should ask for a second beta for Friday.

Well, it's up there. You figure that most of those early pregnancy tests can read levels of around 25 or so... and they say the numbers double every 2-3 days... so things seem to be progressing nicely now.

From: [identity profile] judecorp.livejournal.com
Exactly. I had a dream that it was like 500+ and THAT was scary! This is much more manageable and well within the range of normal for 14dpo. Two tops. I can totally deal.

Yay! That is a good, strong number. I wouldn't worry too much about the betas. Mine didn't double in two days and caused me weeks of unnecessary stress when everything was fine. I have since read and heard that they really don't provide too much definitive info one way or the other. I don't like to know stuff that might potentially worry me when there is nothing to do about it, but I know some people are comforted by details.

That is a great number, though. Mine was 175 and they even commented about how strong that was. Average for 14 DPO is 114!

I am so excited for you! Now to wait impatiently to find out if my theory about IUIs is true and you're having a boy too!

Date: 2006-10-28 02:54 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] judecorp.livejournal.com
Yeah, I am really pleased about the number. It was good and high and showed that things had been happening, without being SO high that I got really, really scared. The nurse seemed really pleased, too.

I actually ended up asking for a repeat with a progesterone check since my doctor's office doesn't check progesterone and I've been having some cramping. I am going on Monday. Here's hoping the number is still good! (But I totally know what you mean about unnecessary worrying, too.)

Boy would be lovely but I think we're both kind of pulling for Team Pink. We'll have to see.

YEA!!!! How many DPO are you? My beta with this pregnancy was 126 at 14DPO. I guess I'm hinting that the 200's are kinda high. Maybe more then one bambino in there I'm thinking...

Hi Jude. Long time no talk. I heard you were pregnant and I'm so happy for you. Carlos and I are trying as well and I am 3 days late but still testing negative so WTF is up with that. My boobs hurt like shit! Anyway, congratulations to you and I hope your pregnancy goes very well. <3

My icon is my FFX-2 "babies" icon.

Thanks, Sarita. I am excited that you and Carlos Carlos are trying to make a baybay. So cute! I will keep my fingers crossed that you have a quick and easy process.

So what is new in your world? I hope life is treating you and Carlos Carlos well. Who told you I was knocked up? Word travels fast in LJ land.

Okay, and it's a little nerdy that you have a "baby" icon from a video game. ;)
