Hi Suzi,
Congratulations on your pregnancy. Betas can vary greatly and guidelines are just that ... guidelines. The rule of thumb is your numbers should double every TWO TO THREE days. The program I went through draws your first beta test and waits one week prior to drawing the second test for these reasons exactly - every couple of days isn't really relevant unless the pregnancy is suspect. Your numbers are headed in the right direction ... sounds to me like you're in pretty darn good shape !!!
Congrats again !!! (and I'm not one to jump the gun with wishes like these :) )
