Pregnant after IF

2nd hcg is in (after 7/28 FET)

On Friday, my hcg level was 213. 72 hours later, it was 618. The median hcg on Betabase is 838, so I am considerably lower than average. I have an ultrasound on 8/25. I won't believe it until I see a heartbeat!!

  • I would not go by the averages at all in that site. Just look for doubling numbers. You more than doubled- so take a deep breath and try and take the night off from worrying.
    Try not to compare too much to others. It will only cause you more worry in the end.
    Congrats in the great 2nd beta.

  • That's a great 2nd beta, and it's going the right direction! Try not to worry too much. That ultrasound will make you feel much better.

  • I think that's a great number! It took me awhile to reach over 1000 but no one was worried because my numbers kept doubling every 48-72 hrs

    For perspective, mine were:
    104 9dp5dt
    240 11dp5dt
    505 13dp5dt
    936 15dp5dt

    I will say I felt a huge relief after we saw the gestational sac and fetal pole!
    Good luck!
