Well, so far soo good!
13dpo 28 Hcg, 34 Progesterone
15dpo 101 Hcg, 43.5 Progesterone
Dr. wants to do another draw on Next Monday  ! I was hoping for this Thursday, to get results this Friday.....she's gonna call me back and let me know if the Dr. says its ok.
Im more worried about the 3rd. and 4th. draws......I have had a low starting hcg pregnancy that went on to double until the 3rd. draw and then went to 66% increase.....which was borderline acceptable. We saw a h/b at 6w4d (should of been 7w2) and then two weeks later it was gone, baby stopped growing at 8w1d. I just hinge on the side of caution with these "late implanters". Keeping my fingers crossed, and trying to stay optomistic!!
Edited: Dr. will let me get the next draw on Thursday!

With this kiddo my doc told me he would rather not to blood draws...and ultimately I agreed. It can add so much stress and worry if the numbers don't come out right...so I just hung on those first few weeks until my first ultrasound and things looked great! Moral of the story? Try not to put too much on the blood draws...they may not come out like you want and you could still have a beautiful pregnancy! Good luck!

I trully wanted to go that route, soooo bad. But, Im a realist, and I just need to know the facts......I did not want to walk into a 8wk u/s to be told it was not viable without ever knowing ahead of time. I put it in my head very realistically this time, by saying to myself "Im 40, I have bad eggs, high FSH, AMH, and the possiblity is only 1 in 10 that I will get a baby out of this". So by knowing ahead of time, Im more prepared. Im a big believer in betas.....to the core. If they are not doubeling every 48hrs past the 100 mark to the 10,000 mark, I know something is wrong. Ive been down this road way too many times. There is no such thing to me, with my pregnancy's that 72hrs is acceptable. My dr. is the one that really instilled this in me. This may not be whats on the web, but my dr. and RE have told me the facts to their beliefs, and so far they have always been right.
Wheeeeew, sorry that was so long!!
