Beta today was 1615 from 942 on Friday. It didn't double. It increased by 71%. Doctor is trying to convince me not to worry and has scheduled an ultrasound for Thursday.
Progesterone dropped to 133 from 153.
I do not find these results particularly encouraging. Probably because I am expecting this to go wrong.
I did some research that said that after hcg hits 1200 it takes a little longer to double, 48-72 hours.
I am wondering if I should go in tomorrow or Tuesday to have another blood test or actually wait for the blood test and ultrasound on Thursday.
I am so scared.

Ok, this is still a pretty good increase. I know how scared you are - call me if you need anything.
I'm hoping for the best and can completely understand how scared you must be. I think I would want another blood test before Thursday.
I don't think you have anything to worry about yet, that's totally within the normal range - you can check at http://www.betabase.info but this looks bang on for the range you are in. Fingers very much crossed.
I SO know the beta hell you're going thru now. Hang in there. Please try to remember that nothing you do/say/think now can change the outcome -- it's already been decided. I'm hoping for the best for you and will keep checking in for updates.
Krista - Assvice alert *** Keep remembering how right so many things have gone this time and how much better this time has been. I am so hoping that this is just a little valley amongst all of the "peaks" that you have recently had. All is not lost. Hugs
Tighten your new "Orange Belt" darling!
Beta numbers sound good to me.
...but of course the nail biting will be out of control at your house until Ultrasound time.
Hang in there! I totally understand the panic...how could you not. But as everyone else has said, this is still within normal levels. Thinking of you with fingers tightly crossed.
Try to hang in there Krista. I know it's scary, but these are still good numbers. I am thinking of you. Hugs.
I know its hard waiting, but I would until Thursday. Only the ultrasound will really tell you whats going on.
Hang in there, you're doing good so far...
I'm so happy for you Krista. Hang in there until u/s day.
It was still a good increase... I am scared for you too... I would probably go for a blood draw, I wouldn't be able to wait until Thursday...
Please keep us updated, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Keep that 48-72 in mind, Krista. Don't let it go. Things are normal so far.
I know how you feel. Waiting for betas is pure hell.
Those numbers are still very good even though not quite doubled! Hang in there, and I will have my fingers crossed for you. Hoping Thursday gets here quickly.
Hang in there Krista--I know it is hard, but I think these are still good numbers.
Nothing to add to all the good advice you've already been given. Just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking about you.
Hang in there!
Thinking of you, Krista, and hoping time goes by quickly until your next test or ultrasound... I know how scared you must be.
Oh Krista...you're in my thoughts and I'm hoping all is well.
in my thoughts, hang in there.
Oh, Krista. I'm hoping and praying the best for you.
We are all not so patiently waiting here... hoping for some good news soon!
