Today is second blood draw

Hey ladies I hope you are all doing well with your pregnancies. Today is my second blood draw to check the Hcg levels and I am praying that I get a phone call with the resutls before the weekend. We have huge plans of celebrating my husbands birthday and I don't want my mind to be totally preoccupied although i know he wouldn't be mad. It is so hard to take this pregnancy one day at a time. I am relieved as I am feeling much more pregnant with symptoms than I did the last time and hopefully they will last. I remember the few symptoms I was having with the previous pregnancy just seemed to disappear one day and I wish I had the nerve to call the doctor and not be so niave then but again as most of you on this forum we really had no reason to suspect anything. My sister has factor five which pre-disposes her to blood clots which resulted her in losing a baby at 5.5 months and just recently a set of twins at 10 weeks. I tested negative for it a long time ago so m/c were always the furthest thing from our minds - well until now. I am done rambling. I hope everyone has a great or better day - I will update you as soon as I know anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got a call from the doctors, my progesterone is fine 10.3 and my Hcg is 74.6. From what I have heard it doesn't matter what the number is as long as it doubles in those 48 hours correct??? I can't lie the nerves have tottally set in, my heart is racing and I can't see to get time to move any faster. I am praying they call me before the weekend, I don't know how I am going to get through this weekend without knowing...
