I'm kind of worried. Seems like a lot of people have much higher hCG levels than me. Mine is 84 at 14dpiui. What do you ladies think?

I wouldn't worry...that seems like a good number to me. There have been lots of ladies with numbers similar to yours that have healthy babies. Basically the only thing we should all be looking for in our numbers is if they are doubling every 48 hours.

When is your next beta?

Did very many of you have cramping? I've had some minor cramping for about the last two weeks. No spotting though. I'm all crazy nervous about it.
