Multiples

Beta Question

Hi ladies, I post on the Getting Pregnant board, but a friend of mine just got her beta numbers yesterday and was wondering if she could compare them to those of you that are MoM's.

Her beta level was 441, 9 days after IVF transfer.

We both realize that it could just be a really high number for a singleton, but her beta level with a singleton last time was SIGNIFCANTLY LOWER.

Any help you can give would be great!!!

Re: Beta Question

  • I don't know what mine were but I know they can vary greatly.  The only way to really tell is a u/s.

    Tell her congrats on her pregnancy!

  • While beta numbers are not necessarily indicative of multiples, www.betabase.info breaks down betas by singleton, twins, or triplets +. 
    After 20 months TTC with PCOS, we were blessed with twins!

  • You'll find a range of women with multiples that had either normal betas or high betas. Ditto the above post that an u/s is really the way to know.

    FWIW though, I did have "high" betas--10 day past, my first beta was 593 and at 14 days past, they were 1393. My RE (I also went through IVF) said he had a strong feeling it was going to be multiples based on my #s but the u/s at 5 wks confirmed that it was.

    Pls. tell your friend congrats on her PG and best of luck!!
