19 dpo beta

2660.

This seems high to me. I looked back at all of my old betas and this is right around the same as the last two pregnancies at that stage. I should not even look at old stuff as it is making me absolutely crazy!! Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for rising numbers and of course, for the doubling. I am pregnant today and I am grateful.

But really, that seems high....right?

I have no idea. I try not to look into that stuff too much or I'll drive myself crazy. Though they say high numbers can mean twins? I'm sure someone with more knowledge will chime in, just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you and hoping this is a sticky baby.

not that you need something else to obsess over but according to this chart (http://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Single) that is a great number!

Oh sweetie, I am so excited for you! Sending so many sticky baby thoughts!!!

I don't know if that is high or not, but it sure seems like a good number! Try not to think about how it compares to the prior times. You are pregnant now and you are doing everything you can to stay that way.

I know it is so hard not to compare every little thing to your last pregnancy but try to enjoy this one. Your beta seems very, very good!

Wow, I've missed a lot!
Not sure if the number is high or not -even with my twins my numbers really didn't indicate that I had more than one baby. Just wanted to say that I'm keeping you I my thoughts and hoping for a really sticky one this time.
One day at a time...

Well my numbers were high at my first beta - indicating twins - and I've only got one cooking. I think it's all subjective. Either way, I'm sending many sticky thoughts for one or two!

Mine were high too (and I worried too) but we just had one healthy little guy :) Hooray for a good, solid beta!

Don't obsess over the numbers (easier said that done, right!?) if you can. My RE's advice was this simple: "It is going up, that is good."

It is not going down. It is going up, exactly like it is supposed to.

It does seem high, but hey, who cares? It's going up, up, up! Neither of mine were that high at 19dpo, but maybe you've got more than one growing in there! I know it's hard not to obsess, but I hope you can enjoy this despite the stress.

Great number!! I was going to suggest betabase.info too. This is so exciting!! Big, huuuge hug!

Mine was 810 at 15 dpo and 1942 at 17dpo...so I think you've just got a fabulously strong baby there! Keep up you postive thoughts! :)

OOOH OOOH YAY YOU ARE PREGNANT CONGRATS!!!

Shame on me for not keeping up with blogs!

I had a STRONG hunch it would work for you this time. So so happy to see it did. YAY, after a long hard work day, you brought me a big smile. You're probably doing a lot of smiling yourself these days. =)

I'm actually glad my "new" clinic only did two betas -- keeps women from stressing. At any rate I will keep you and baby (or babies) in my prayers.

I can't believe I missed this!
I think that number is fine and I am praying this is it for you!
