  Got my blood drawn again. Hopefully we will get it back today but if not, tomorrow by noon the tech said. She gave me the print out of my numbers and my hcg was actually 19.8 and my progesterone was 12.51.... don't know what my doctor was smoking lol. ooor i heard him wrong. The paper she gave me says normal progesterone is 11.22-90.00 so hopefully its alright. I am so anxious to get the second result. Not a bit of spotting though so I am super hopeful.

I didn't manage to check in yesterday because of a stupid migraine but I'm really pleased you managed to get your blood results back, I don't know anything about them but I hope your next results are still showing what they should!
Also its great that you've managed to find a new OB so quickly, there's nothing worse than having a doctor of any sort who you feel doesn't care about you. Its really good that they've managed to get you in on monday too, bet that's a weight off your shoulders!
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for your next numbers

I am so anxious that I can barely function lol. I have to wait for sure until they open at 7 30 or 8 so I am just bouncing off the walls. It isn't like an excited anxious though, just dread. I just hope they call right away.

I don't know if it is hormones or what but I have been on the verge of tears all day. Just like having an all day panic attack. I am going to try really hard to fall asleep until noon, then I am going to call and ask. Pray, throw sticky dust, send happy thoughts, whatever you do.

HCG 33
Progesterone 17.25!
Doubling rate: 54.28 Hours as I had the draws exactly 40 hours apart
I don't know what to think.

That's a good sign your progesterone is going up! The progesterone is what supports the pregnancy, so it's important. My OB said that there are some babies that are slow starters and the hCG doesn't double as quickly, and the babies end up being perfectly healthy! I think I've read that as long as you have around a 60% increase within the 48 hours it's okay and you made that!  I think it's encouraging!

The progesterone is great! Some women, especially so early, don't see doubling times right away. My doctor actually encouraged me to put 1 week between the blood draws because she didn't want me to stress about it if they didn't double quickly. At the very beginning, it can be slower. Actually, she had told me she just likes to see doubling in 48 to 72 hours. So I think you're just fine.

I think the new OB is going to order bw again when I go see him on monday but after researching more online, I think I feel more hopeful. The progesterone was super encouraging.

The progesterone is definitely good, and that doubling time is fine. Everyone says 48 hours, but it's really all good up to 72 hours. According to my research, at least.
