briggsy's girl- nope perfecly reasonable i think...you've been through a lot to get here...if you want to by brand new stuff for your little miracle why shouldn't you? if you can afford it, go for it. They should respect, and really should understand, your decision and the reasons why.

thanks for your reassurance to me. I am trying not to worry...I think I just had in my head that it would have doubled every 2-3 days and therefore be higher...but my nurse said it can fluctuate and go a little slower sometimes.... I just want my scan to hurry up. I actually called my Ob and he was away until friday (saw him last time..but my first appt this time is for after our scan)...I just wanted another opinion. His receptionist said I can call again friday when he's back anyway.
