Thnx again everyone.

Beta HCG today was 52 or 56, can't remember. Will have another on Fri.

Found this info:

The beta HCG needs to be at least 5 IU/L to be regarded as a 'positive' result. A beta HCG of 25 IU/L (or more) is definitely regarded as a 'positive' pregnancy test.

Normal HCG blood levels vary widely between different women and in different pregnancies for the same woman. Be very careful when trying to 'interpret the numbers'. During the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, the level itself is NOT as important in how much it is rising every few days. Some normal pregnancies will have quite low HCG levels and still progress, ending in the birth of a healthy baby. The best way to confirm if a pregnancy is progressing is to repeat the blood test in 2 to 3 days time, and perhaps again 2 to 3 days after that. This is aimed at seeing if the HCG level is rising adequately.

Thnx again.

My Quantitive Beta HCG blood test on Tue was 52 (or 56) = 4wks1day, & today (Fri) was 333 = 4wks4days, it generally doubles every 2-3 days in a normal singleton pregnancy. It quadrupled in 2 days last time with Holly, but was still only a singleton pregnancy.
