  • So, I'm totally dumb with all this. What numbers are we looking for in the beta? With my IUIs the nurse just called and said they were negative but she didn't tell me numbers. My beta is Wednesday but today I got 2 BFNs when I POASed. : (
  • I'm sorry @Shopaholic42488 :(  @kyrgyzshan I believe most pregnancy tests won't pick it up until your HCG is 25 or higher, though some people report a FRER will pick up 10 or higher.  By 14dpo I think the docs like your HCG to be 100 or above, but don't quote me on that.

    FET #1 (Sept 2016) = BFP! DD born 5/30/17
    FET #2 (April 2019) = BFN
    FET #3 (July 2019) = BFP! DS born 3/27/20
  • They still want me to go wednesday for another test, I could have ovulated later. I don't know. I can't wait to go for a run tomorrow
  • @wifeinraleigh28 @kyrgyzshan I actually just looked that up and the website I looked at said that around 100 is what they like to see for that first beta, but plenty of healthy pregnancies start below there.

  • As far as hCG testing (Beta testing), anything over a 5 is considered technically pregnant. But, typically by the time we are tested, the number is over 50 or more.

    The ranges vary widely, so it's hard to point to a right number, but the important factor is that in repeated tests, the number doubles every 48-72 hours.

  • I am sorry for those who have gotten a negative or an ambiguous result... Like @wifeinraleigh28 said - even when it's expected, it can still hurt so much.

    I've been a little less active on the boards, just trying to keep my head on straight. All of this can be so consuming. But, I am still hoping and watching for more BFPs. I know there's more to come from this group!

    Hope everyone has a great week!
