4w5d blood work results

This is about yesterday - 4w5d's beta results!! I was anxiously to hear the #'s and got them a few hours ago. Here's the break down now.



12 dpo - 24 mIU/mL, Progesterone 22.94

16 dpo - 122 mIU/mL Doubling Time 40.92 hours

19 dpo - 422 mIU/mL, Progesterone 18.4 Doubling Time 40.22 hours




It's going at a great pace, staying under 2 days doubling time so I'm happy! The nurse practitioner said my progesterone is in the normal levels for the first trimester and that they can vary so I'm not too worried about that.



I've got the referral to the Navy hospital's OB/gyns approved so I'll be calling to make my first appointment soon! I'm still praying they stick to their agreement about having my first ultrasound at 6 weeks, but we'll see. I already know the person who discussed it no longer works there - thing about Navy doctors is they're switched out so much!! The price we pay sometimes.



So here's hoping for the best - and praying for a miracle in the end. I'm already so excited to start everything for this baby I cannot wait.

4w2d Update

Pregnancy update: 4w2d. Promise I won't do that all the time! LOL. Well, today is technically 16dpo... got my second beta drawn today and have to wait for the results!! Unfortunately when I asked the lady how long until I get the results she said most likely 48 hours!! It sounds like their place had changed who owns it or something, but if it takes 48 hours then all I have to say is their laboratory sucks. And yes I'm anxious to know, I just thought it would be more like 24 hours. Once I get them I'll be updating again. Oh and the pregnancy test? Yeah I took that after my beta for reassurance.
