Low Beta Number. Any experience?

I had my first beta this morning. It was low at 13.1. But it is still positive! I tested on a FRER the last 3 days and the second pink line is getting increasingly darker so I am hopeful that I am pregnant, just maybe late implantation? Has anyone experienced this? I need prayers and good vibes for the next blood work on Saturday to make sure the number is rising!

    I found this online.  https://americanpregnancy.org/while-pregnant/hcg-levels/
    • An hCG level of less than 5mIU/ml is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25mIU/ml is considered positive for pregnancy.

    Guideline to hCG levels during pregnancy

    hCG levels in weeks from LMP (gestational age)* :

    • 3 weeks LMP: 5 – 50 mIU/ml
    • 4 weeks LMP: 5 – 426 mIU/ml
    • 5 weeks LMP: 18 – 7,340 mIU/ml
    • 6 weeks LMP: 1,080 – 56,500 mIU/ml
    • 7 – 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 – 229,000 mIU/ml
    • 9 – 12 weeks LMP: 25,700 – 288,000 mIU/ml
    • 13 – 16 weeks LMP: 13,300 – 254,000 mIU/ml
    • 17 – 24 weeks LMP: 4,060 – 165,400 mIU/ml
    • 25 – 40 weeks LMP: 3,640 – 117,000 mIU/ml
    • Non-pregnant females: <5.0 mIU/ml
    • Postmenopausal females: <9.5 mIU/ml

    Thank you @babyexpress! I am thrilled to know that it 13.1 is positive for pregnancy! I hope that when I go back tomorrow, the number will have increased drastically and we will all be sure that this baby is growing!  The 10th is just around the corner!! :)

    Good luck! It's not the number that counts it's how it is doubling every 48-72 hours. I have 2 children that were slow risers!
