Hopping over from 3T with a beta question

[hoosiermama76]

Hi, I hope I go here someday, but I thought there might some knowledge here about betas here that might give me some inspiration.

On 5/2, we transferred two fresh embryos.
Today, at 9dp5dt, my beta was 25. Any one go on to have a healthy pregnancy with a low number like this?

[teachermomtobe]

No personal advice since I didn't have betas until 14dp5dt and they were higher. Just here to say FX for you!

[hoosiermama76]

Thank you teachermomtobe

It's not so much the first number that matters as it is the second number (not that the first number is irrelevant, it just doesn't give you the whole picture). So many factors can play in to what a number is, and a "good beta number" can fall anywhere on a pretty large scale of numbers that have resulted in viable pregnancies.

What is most important is that the number is doubling properly. I know it sucks to hear, but there is no real concrete answer to your question because so much depends on what your number is on Saturday after beta 2.

FX for a beautifully doubling beta. Keep us posted!

@ketchup. Thank you. That at least gives me hope.

+2 or 3 that it's that second number that's really going to count.

My beta at 13dpo/IUI was 32. 15 dpo was 136 and I'm 16+6 today. ::shrug:: the waiting game sucks but right now there's nothing else to do.

It sounds like you're doing great, thechickencoop, which makes my heart happy!

Hi! We didn't do betas until 11dp5dt and I was only 43, but I doubled then tripled. And am now 29w. We transferred 2, but am pregnant with a singleton. Fingers crossed for you!

Thanks JustJudy! Inspiration!

hoosiermama76, congrats on the increasing beta! Some are just slower to get going. Are you getting another beta done Monday?
