This is a discussion on 2nd Beta Results!! within the Invitrofertilization (IVF) forums, part of the Trying to Conceive - Infertility category; 2nd beta came in at 828 so I think we're right on track....what do you girls think, could ...
Yeah, I'm excited that it more than doubled, I was so nervous that I'd wake up from this amazing dream and the nurse would tell me #'s dropped or didnt double fast enough!! I'm thinking now that it might only be one, which would be just fine by me (and DH, he is so scared of having twins)!!

Thanks girls! My first ultrasound is supposed to be either Memorial Day or the day after, so I still have another week and 3 days (and 2 more betas), UGH!! Before I got results of 2nd beta, I was thinking it they were over 1000, its definitely twins but since it's not, I'm thinking maybe just one now. Only time will tell!!

I still think twins . . . you are WAY above the numbers for a singleton, and you would have been over 1000 at 18 dpo. I was 617 at 18 DPO, and you are 828 at 17 DPO with those numbers increasing much faster than doubling every 48 hrs.
