My HCG Beta Results Are In and It's Not Looking Good...

September 17, 2008

Hey guys, I'm a little down right now...

I went in this morning for my beta and the numbers came back at 43.9. The nurse told me that at 14dpo, they would like to see the numbers at least at 50.

So it's not looking good. I will repeat a blood test on Saturday but this could be a sign of a chemical.

Dr's Q or Eva what are your opinions on my hcg number? Was there anyone that started with a low number such as mine?

September 17, 2008

Mine were 56 at 13 dpo I believe...so long as you are doubling every 48-72 hrs..you are fine.

GL!!

Hey Thunder, I don't want to disreguard what your doc told you but mine werew only 95 at 16dpo so you would be right in line for that. I now have a 3 month old son. I think the more important thing to watch is for doubling like Kelli said. Sticky glue and hugs!!!

Thanks girls-

Fran, that truly, truly makes me feel better. Now the rest of the week is going to be crappy, until i find out. ugh!!! Did your Dr. make a deal about your numbers?

September 17, 2008

good luck thunder!! let us know how the numbers come back after 2 days...they just need to double!!!

September 17, 2008

Thanks babyquestions ... I just don't know what to think right now!

Hey thunder......no my doc never had a problem with my #'s. He just made sure that they were doubling. And actually once they reached 500 he was happy not to see until like 8 weeks. But I couldn't wait that long and made them give me another blood test which showed my levels at like 11,000 after a few weeks. Please take care and keep us posted! Sticky glue!

Thanks guys...

Ugh... now I'm just going nuts. My boobs don't feel sore - i don't know if that means anything. I feel so bad. I hate this, I hate this, I hate this. Can't find dr q or Eva to ask them to answer my post. I feel so lost.

If i wasn't pregnant, ( or sort of) I'd be having a drink right now. Wait a sec - If I wasn't pregnant, I wouldn't be going through this right now!

Ahhhhh!!!!!

September 18, 2008

Yes the wait is hard. When can you get in to see the doc? Your bbs being sore is a common sign but it doesn't have to be so please don't get upset about that. I really never had signs. hugs!

September 18, 2008

At 14dpo I was only 67. I agree with Fran, as long as your numbers are doubling, you'll be okay and as far as your boobs not being sore anymore, mine were the same, sore one day, nothing the next. Hang in there!

September 18, 2008

don't worry, so long as it's rising appropriately, have seen many good pregnancies starting off at these values

September 18, 2008

Thank you Dr Q

Thank you guys! Fran and Sar - you guys give me hope. I go in tomorrow morning for my next beta. I'll let you guys know when I find out!

September 18, 2008

Praying for you!!!!

September 19, 2008

Yes, def praying for you and that little bean, let us know as soon as ya get the results! (((hugs))) my second beta went up to 156 and I was 16dpo then.

September 19, 2008

Okay - just got my numbers in and they are 117 at 16dpo. Don't know what to think. The number did a little more than double but not quite triple.

What do you guys think? Dr Q?

Plus guys I have hardly any symptoms. Not tired or anything like I was...

I have no idea what is normal?!!!

September 19, 2008

Thunder,all they have to do is rise at least 66% in 48 hours. I think it's a good rise in the numbers. What did your doc say?

September 19, 2008

Are you repeating them again, if so in two days they should be around 234

September 19, 2008

Also seriously, at 16dpo you're not gonna have symptoms. My symptoms didn't kick in until I was like 7wks along and even then they'd come and go.
