I'm 5 weeks pregnant today. Because I've had a previous loss, I have had blood draws twice already.
4w, 3 days - hcg was 179, progesterone was 12.8
4w, 6 days - hcg was 649, progesterone 11.4
Have you had your progesterone levels drop? I go back tomorrow for more blood work. After the first draw, I was put on progesterone pills to help supplement.
First appt isn't until Dec 26. I hate the waiting game!

My bounced a bit between 11 & 15 for a week or so after my first draw and settled over 20 once I started progesterone supplements. I had three previous losses including one the cycle immediately before my BFP, so my OB did not want to take any chances.

I think my RE wanted them over 20, and mine were 28 at my first beta, so they didn't test them again. However, my beta was only 78 at the first blood test, and yours is much higher, so that's wonderful. My RE was a bit concerned about mine.
