HCG level week 7

[LisaRG]

Well I freaked out yesterday and had the DR office take another HCG test.
It came back at 26,214 at 6 weeks 6 days, exactly one week after the first one which was 8781.  The office said it was very very good and is climbing well.
I am so nervous and for some reason wish it was higher.  Any comments?

Your hcg number is about right for 6 weeks.    I wouldn't worry.

I agree, Lisa - your numbers are great - your little peanut (or tadpole as my husband calls it - LOL) is doing great! - jen

Numbers are perfect.  Just so you know, with my last loss, at 6 weeks my numbers were only around 8,000.  At 8 weeks they were only 15,000, then started to drop.  Sounds to me like you are right where you should be!!  Congrats Lisa!!!!

I have my first ultrasound on Tuesday, and yes I am on 200mg progesterone suppositories, yuck.
