I got my betas back. On Wednesday they were 16 that was around 10 dpo. Yesterday they were 359. The OB says those are good but b/c of my history he wants to wait one week and recheck the betas and do my first U/S.

What I'm wondering is how much should they rise in the next week? And do those numbers really sound good?

In the meantime he says he doesn't want to take any chances so even though my spotting has stopped he wants me to stay on bed rest until Monday.

Thanks ladies!

I am unsure about the beta's but I want to say congrats and H&H 9 months to you.

JM wouldn't let me do the search so I did it through AOL.. went I went to copy it.. it looks like this below... it wouldn't let me add any thing lower than 12 dpo.. but the out come states that it is Adequate... so I wouldn't worry.. the numbers look good!

I am not sure about the levels but I have heard they are supposed to double every 2 days or something? As they are rising I think it can only be good!

Best of luck and congrats!

Rising levels are always good! I hope you have a H&H 9 months and am sending you lots of **sticky dust**!!!
