1st Trimester

Beta values

Hey ladies! 

So happy to be on this board now. It sure was a lot going few years on the infertility and trouble ttc board. Just got my beta back Tuesday and the result was 31. The RE said I am definitely pregnant and I am about four weeks. They have me going every other day to check my levels. Which since this is my first I'm extremely nervous. What were your values when you first found out?

Re: Beta values

  • The first numbers have no bearing at all on a pregnancy. It is how the numbers rise within a 48-72 hour period that matters.

  • This is a great resource for seeing what your doubling time is after your next draw:

    Like it says, there is a large variation of normal. FX for a fabulous double!

  • If you join your BMB (birth month board) there is often a post at around this time where women share their betas.  But I agree with PP, the number doesn't matter, just the doubling.
  • I spent a lot of time on betabase.info in the first 6 weeks of my pregnancy!
