HCG level 5

I had two blastocyst transfers on the 24th of Oct. I had a blood test on the 31st, 7 days post transfer and my HCG Intact came back at a 5, My Dr's office said I was borderline positive.
All HPT have been neg. I go back in on Monday for another blood test.
Anyone have a similar situation and turn out to be pregnant and am I pregnant now?

I'm sorry to hear its not increasing like it should.  What did your doctor say?
Have you or can you get your thyroid tested?

That's excellent news!!! I'm so happy for you my dear. Take it easy and drink lots of fluids. Try and eat simple non greasy or spicy foods while that baby snuggles in for the long haul. I hope this eases your mind a little :)

That sounds about right. At 10dp5dt my RE wanted my beta to be at least 50. As long as your numbers keep going up its a great sign. I had to have 5 betas drawn. Mine were not going up like they should initally. I'm almost 18 weeks now on my 9th fresh cycle. Keep the faith my friend and I will keep you in my prayers.

Thank you and yes it was earlier to test. I just hope the numbers grow by Monday. Trying to stay positive. Thank you for the prayers, please continue with the prayers.
Just found out the Dr is looking for my numbers to be at least 100 on Monday, is that possible?

wow 7 days post transfer is early to have a beta. I had mine at 10dpt.  5 or higher is considered a positive beta.  Sending prayers that your numbers look excellent on the next test.
