Re reading my question I MUST be prego! 1st blood drawn at 15 DPO was 173. My second was drawn today at 18 DPO and that # I won't know till Monday. I have long cycles so it being 6 weeks since LMP I think I can't really go by that. But thanks guys! It calms my nerves!

The number is not as important as it doubling every third day. I have very low betas that triple every 3rd day and now 6 weeks prego.
I was 14dpo with a beta of 27.5- now 6 weeks and over 1100. (still in the lower end of normal)...try not to worry to much over numbers if you can help it.
