BFP and HCG level

[Tarobinc]

OK, so finally get my BFP after 3 rounds of IUI. My beta was taken at 15dpiui it is at 98.8.  The nurse said the number should double by Sunday and increase by 33% by Monday.  My HCG should then be around 262.6 (if I did my math right.)

I am looking for anyone who started out with a low HCG level but went on to a full term pregnancy.

I realize it is the not the actual first number that matters but what the second number and so forth tells me.

I had a m/c back in Oct/2010 so I am trying to be very optimistic and enjoying where I am at but I figured it wouldn't hurt to post this.

Thanks!

Thanks! More reassurance!

Congratz!
My levels were very low during my last pregnancy and my little guy is now 2 and healthy as an ox.
I'm willing to bet they will be low with this one too, but I'm not worried because of the last one.

Thanks for responding. I am feeling more relaxed today!

First, congrats on your BFP :)

Second...take a deep breath and relax :)

Assuming you were inseminated around day 14 of your cycle, at 15 days post IUI you would be about 29 days (4 weeks) gestation. According to the article linked above normal range for that stage is 5 - 426 mIU/ml...big enough range for you? LOL

You are right, the important thing is that your levels continue to INCREASE. So until you get the results of your 2nd test, the numbers don't mean much at this stage...you are within the "normal" range.

Again, congrats!
