They look good!! This is from last week on Wed at 5 weeks and 3 days (41 DPO) it was 19,402 and on Friday at 5 weeks and 5 days (43 DPO) it was 27,000! They said since they were so high that that is looking good!!

Now I go back June 1st for my next appointment and ultrasound.

Those numbers look fantastic! You have a doubling time of about 100 hours, which is right where you should be.

Believe it or not, the stupid nurse at my current OB's office scared me by saying my numbers weren't doubling in the right amount of time...they went from 6,572 to 11,011 in three days. However, it is only in very early pregnancy that your numbers are supposed to double every 2-3 days. When your hcg passes 6,000, it usually takes over 4 days for the numbers to double.

Just thought I'd let everyone know, in case they were interested. Boy am I ready to move on to non-interventionist midwifery care!

Thanks!! The nurse did explain that part to me. I am happy to not have to worry about it so much. Even though really I wasn't to worried. Now in two weeks if I see that heartbeat I will be totally not worried lol!
