EXTREMELY LOW HCG!!! Help!

mya1218mya1218
in May 2014 Moms
So I found I was pregnant with my first a few days before my missed period. On cycle day 27 I went in to the doc and my hcg was only a 9!!! She had me go in two days later and went up to a 23. She didn't schedule me for another beta until another 2 weeks. Anyone have this experience or know of anyone that had very low numbers and still had a healthy pregnancy? I feel fine. I am now two days past my period due date. Mild cramping occasionally. Slightly sore breasts. Mild nausea on and off and extremely tired. I am so scared!!! It's our first and we are so excited!! I pray to God it sticks!!!!

    Do you know approximately when you ovulated?  How many DPO were you when you had the first HCG level done?

    ETA:  It is most important that the number doubles, not what the number is.  Yours did, so that is a good sign.  That said, I had super low betas during my first IVF and it ended in a chemical pregnancy.  I know another woman who had betas like mine that had her baby girl last week.

    Your betas more than doubled. That is all that matters. They all have to start somewhere. :)

    They are probably happy that the number doubled so don't feel the need to test again until 2 weeks from now.  I had a beta done at 13DPO and again today at 15DPO and won't have another one at all because they were happy the number more than doubled.
