What is important is if the numbers are doubling or not. You won't know that until after your bloodwork on Thursday.

You can't get worried until your second test comes back. The number should double in 48 hours.

HCG numbers under about 1,200 should double within 48 to 72 hours (the doubling rate slows down as the numbers get higher). As others have said, it's not the initial number that's important, it's whether it is raising appropriately.

CONGRATS!

I found out i was pregnant at 3 weeks ish. My first beta HCG test came back at 190. A few days to about a week after my second test came 3900+! So i wouldn't think to much into the first test, its the growth that counts! Good luck!!
