Ok, I'm a stresser...Would you guys be happy with these beta results?

Ok so I got my BFP on 5/9.  I was out of town so I didn't go for my beta until Monday which was 17 dpo.  That result was 707.  I went two days later for a second beta and it was 1402.  The RE's office said they were very happy with it and that it doubled so I didn't have to come back until the ultrasound on 5/26.  I'm kinda worried as if it exactly doubled it would be 1414 but it only was 1407.  Would this concern you guys?

Oh girl, i know you have plenty of reasons to be a worrier, but those are GREAT numbers... my number was 93 at 17dpIUI which is really low and all turned out good.  

The number doesn't have to exactly double. I'd be thrilled with it!!!  

My dr only did two blood tests also. Since the number was within a acceptable range I didn't go back until first u/s.  

Congrats hon.. this is great news!!

OMG...if this worries you, are you gonna make it through the next eight-odd months, silly? LOL. Those numbers are GREAT! And, actually, HcG doesn't always double...I'm pretty sure the rule of thumb is "approximately double every 2-3 days." Mine definately wasn't double - and here I am, 28 weeks and doing great!

Congrats on your BFP - enjoy!!

From one stresser to another YES, I would be happy with those results!!!!!! Mine did not quite double either and now I am 26 weeks fat and happy!!!!  Stop doing the math and enjoy your pregnancy!!!!!! You have a whole 9 months to stress, so pace yourself!

Grow little bean grow!!!!!!

OMG. you are like my dad reading my report card. if i went from to 95 to a 94 he'd say "you went down a point" and i say - but it's still an A!!!! i'd say 1407 is a A. congrats.
