Yes the first number sounded high for 5 weeks but things should be doubling at least until 12 weeks. It shouldn't stay the same. I have an US scheduled for Wednesday, we'll see how that is. I want to have hope but these last few weeks have been so hope filled that I don't think there is much left.

Good luck with the ultra sound. I know how nerve wracking it can be waiting to find out if everything is ok!
