am I looking good? hcg is stressful

[Stacey_89]

So Sunday night my levels were 1500
Tuesday night I had more done and got my results this morning.
They were 2350..I was expecting them to be 3000 but doc said they like to see it rise by 66%. So they was looking at 2490.
So I'm not that far off, would you say this is still good? I have to go back again tomorrow night to have more done.
I hate hcg testing. Nothing but stress and worry.
Will be having another scan in a week or so


Plus I found this which was interesting
"Normal" Doubling Time
hCG levels Doubling Time
Under 1200 mIU/ml 31-72 hours
Between 1200 to 6000 mIU/ml 72-96 hours
Over 6000 mIU/ml more than 96 hours

So why is it docs always say 48hrs??

I wouldn't worry as long as doctor isn't worried!

I had my hcg done thursday at 3 weeks 5 days is and my number was 150. Doctor was happy with it.

Got it done again yesterday at 4 weeks 4 days and it was around 1,200 and doctor again was really happy with it.

I figure as long as he is happy with it, I'm happy. He's the professional.

Yeh its just when they rang me and said " well idealy we like to see it rise by 66 percent " she didnt sound too happy about it but they sais they not too worried either.

plus iv heard after 2000 levels take longer to rise and after 6000 even longer!!

Wonder why they always say 48hrs? As some people take 72hrs.

im going to ask tonight when I have more took.

I think those numbers sound great but what do I know?

I wish I could get my doctor to check my levels, I would love to just make sure they are getting higher....
