18DPO HCG Levels - Is this normal?!

Hi there!

My nurse delivered results from today's beta and said that bloodwork came back at an "appropriate" level. I wish she would've used a better word than "appropriate"!!

Does this seem like a normal increase? Is it on the lower end?
HELP!

11DPO: 61.1
13DPO: 168.1
18DPO: 1,666.4

We did a sono today and were able to see the sac, too! It's tiny, but it's there!

They say beta level increase rapidly during the first few weeks. Do maybe but ask your Doctor... Congrats! !

That's a good increase! "Appropriate" isn't the best wording but they seem to speak like that in that profession. "Satisfactory" is another one that makes things sound so blah. Just say "good"! Lol!
Congrats! =))

UPDATE: Thank you for your replies! We actually just received rather shocking news yesterday: We're having **TWINS**!!

5wks 5days:
Baby A's heartbeat was seen and measured at 98BPM

Baby B was discovered and measured at 5wks 0 days. No heartbeat detected yet, but we go back for u/s next Thursday. Hoping they both grow big in the next week!!
