Thank you all very much for your support and encouraging words!!!
Mine were 228 but I have no idea how far along I am. Waiting for results of a 2nd beta HCG test tomorrow.
The issue isn't with the number itself- the HCG levels need to double every 72 hours. Multiples might be one possibility or you might be farther along than expected? No way to know until you have an ultrasound in the coming months!
At 16 DPO, my hcg was 1600. HIGH... we thought at first that it may be multiples but the dr. didn't seem to worry at all. I am having a healthy baby girl following 5 m/c's. I am high risk and I go every two weeks for u/s and appointments.
good luck...
a little high, but can be explained easily. For example, if you ovulated a day or 2 earlier, if your doubling time is 24 hours instead of 48 hours, if the sperm and egg met immediately and implanted quickly, etc... or maybe multiples :)
