I haven't read a ton on beta numbers but I did refer to these two charts for singles and twins when looking at my beta number and trying to find a norm... if you can even call it that:
http://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Single
http://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Twin
Not sure if that will give you any indicator. But I'm sure there are plenty of women on here who can speak to your range and their success. I do think, however, what's most important is what the number rises to, not so much what it is right now.
Good luck to you!
No, they aren't bad at all. The number is good, and the important thing is whether or not they double/triple in the next 48-72 hours.
I started with a 27 12 dpt..my son is a beautiful 2 year old! Stay positive and good luck!
My beta was 40 14dpiui and I gave birth to a beautiful, healthy 9 lb, 2 oz baby boy in January. It doesn't matter what it starts at - it just needs to rise at least 60% every 2 days.
Thanks so much for your info guys! Its made me feel a bit better..
Hurry up Monday!!!!!! :o)
Hi everyone,
My beta level was 27 on 9 dpt & 35 on 11 dpt. I'm worry a lot. I'll take blood work again on Monday 6/21.
kalua141 & docsac...you gave me some hope :)
Thanks for the info.
Good luck! We'll both be going in on Monday...
Fingers crossed!
my first beta was 83.2
second beta 46
doctor said i might miscarry. anyone else had a similar experience
My beta on 15 dpo was around 9 and prog around .7 or so. My RE told me I would miscarry it. But still they would want me to take progestrone. And I started bleeding heavily on that day along with huge blood clots. I didnt take progestrone for a day. and on 17dpo. I went for blood work. I thought I have lost it but my hcg increased to 48.9 and prog 1.3. Went for bllod work on 19 dpo. My hcg increased to 64.1 and prog is 13. I am supposed to go for blood work and u/s on friday. I still dont know whats happening.
Sorry second time it was 29.8 not 48.9.......
sg10: That has to be very scary... the positive thing is that the numbers ARE going up!!!!!!!!! I'll be thinking of you... Crossing fingers!
LivingInFaith: Its so hard... i really hope that the numbers start going back up for you... Please know that we're here for you.
yep. Its scary. I just want things to go wrong if it has to go wrong right now and not later bcos I want to enjoy the 9 mths. Not be worried all the time.
I just got my 2nd BETA results back.. not good.
Its been 3 days since my last BETA..i went from 44 to 77....
so it didnt even double in 3 days..
They said to just stay on meds and re-test on Wed... theres nothing else that can be done at this point.
I completely understand how you feel. After my first beta and the doc told me its not viable. I had completely given up. I used to miss my office and sit in Central Park.(I am from NYC sub urbs) for 2 days I exercised, ran on threadmill just to get things out of my mind. I was also bleeding heavily @ this time with dizziness. I told my doc I am not taking progestrone. I didnt even take for a day. But the beta increased thou considering my dpo my beta is not that good and also the progestrone. Dont loss hope. I am still hanging on. Have u/s and blood work on Friday.
Let me know how it goes. I am keeping fingure crossed for both of us.
I just got a positive beta on friday but also started off very low. My #'s were similar to SG10 I have since continued to double & hanging in there. I have another beta on fridy which will be #4 and am so scared. I am praying for a sticky baby.
OOh wow! I'm so glad that it worked for you this time, Kricket! If they are doubling thats a great sign!
Keeping fingers crossed for all of us that this is finally our time!
Hang in there.
My was the worst one since I bleeded for 4 days with blood clots. and sometimes I feel a spot or 2 now but its reduced. I am taking preg test everyday just to be sure I didnt miscarry. I just hope the betas go up for all of us. keeping fingures crossed for all. Let me know how it goes on Friday. Even I have u/s and bloodwork on friday.
I am also worried about tubal pregnancy. Any ideas on this?
Yikes... When is your ultra sound?? Are you feeling any pain in your upper abdomen(by the belly button) or on the sides where your tubes are?
My beta went down.
27 on 9dpt
35 on 11dpt
11 on 14dpt
There is no word to say how I feel. Hope no one never feel this pain.
Good luck to all of you.
I'm so so sorry. This is all just so hard. God, why does this have to be so hard for us!? ((hugs))
No I don't have any pain. Once in a while I get a cramp. Nothing severe.
Would I be getting pain If it is tubal? I am really worried considering the things I went throu. I have u/s on Friday. And blood test too.
Right now I think I have gas. Stomach has a lot bloated. I think my bbs has increased too. Get tired really soon. Feel nausea sometime but have not yet thrown up. So do any1 think there are chances of tubal?
Also my temp has increased from 97.6 to 98.1 which is also same when I ovulated. I am always hungry. I am sure hcg has increased but I am hoping it's increased a lot much.
I am really sorry to hear that. We completely understand how you feel.
