Beta # 3 Results

My number is now 3575!!

For those of you who understand beta doubling here are my stats:

17dpo: 166
20dpo: 966 ...doubled every 28 hours since 1st beta.
24dpo: 3575 ...doubled every 51 hours since 2nd beta.

I am VERY pleased with these solid numbers and the nurse confirmed that we are doing just great. She really thinks that I have no reasons worry and that I should feel confident and enjoy the process. She was very sweet and I am completely going to follow her recommendations!! I am feeling more blessed now than ever. We are REALLY pregnant and things are doing very well!!! What a relief!! Thank God!!

One more thing...I read yesterday in a new book I bought called The Pregnancy Journal that by now our baby's heart has started beating....AMAZING!!! I cannot wait until our first ultrasound on Dec. 23rd so we can see it!!

What an amazing holiday season we're having. God is good!!!

    Oh what wonderful news! I wasn't worried for you but it's always so nice to have an extra bit of reassurance. I got my last beta last Friday and I am still feeling good. U/S next Wednesday for me, so same wait time as you just a week off. With such a fabulous beta/doubling time you should be able to make it! What, 12 days? What an amazing Christmas present! :) I'm so excited for you Cilla! :)

    Great Beta numbers! My doc only let me do one beta and then made me wait till 18 days after the BFP to do an ultrasound! It was torture! But seeing the heartbeat was just awesome and hearing it a week later was heaven-sent. Congrats and good luck!
