Hello girls, some of you have already read my intro to the forum 'can I join in?' and thank you for your warm welcome...it's scary leaving your comfortable old forum

I do have a question as naturally I'm a little nervous at this early stage but trying to stay positive and not focus on the ifs and maybes.

My first BT hcg was 86 (15 days after EPU), I got another done for peace of mind at GP 48 hours later and it was 170. DH and I were happy with that (the old 48hour doubling rule of thumb) but GP didn't seem so happy so I've had another - results this arvo.

He showed me this from the lab:
week 4 lower=40 median=350 upper=2000
week 5 l=400 m=1800 u=10000

and said it's a shame you're not up in the 1000s. Would that be a more realistic figure...I'm just worried that the same thing that happened last time will happen again(slow rise hcg...then drop)

advice and experience appreciated.
