BETA #1

CYBURRCHICCYBURRCHIC member
in TTC after 35

Hope you all are OK with me staying here for a while longer.  I can't seem to make the move to PAIF just yet.  Just being cautious...

BETA #1 was 195.  Not really sure what that means.  If anyone has insight on Beta Ranges please let me know!  Dr Google isn't very helpful yet.  Will probably lurk on some other boards to see what others have had.  Go for BETA #2 on Wed.

    Beta ranges are huge and meaningless.  One number alone really doesn't matter so much as the comparison of how quickly your numbers are rising.  Ideally, they will double every 48-72 hours, so you'll be looking for something close to 400 on Wednesday.  Don't freak out if it's a little lower than that, because sometimes it just rises a little slower.  Good luck!

    Cute babies!  I had 3 really good sized follies, so I won't be completely shocked if there is more than one.  When did you find out you were having twins?  I am thinking they will do an ultrasound around 6-7 weeks????

    With my pregnancy, my RE did an u/s at 7 weeks.  She said it's "sometimes" possible to see a HB at 6 weeks, but because it's not 100% certain, she doesn't do them that early as to avoid any unnecessary anxiety if a HB is not seen.

    Great number!  Here's to doubling!!! 

    m/c at 6 wks 2002
    Endometriosis, s/p lap 2009
    Behcet's disease, s/p partial vulvectomy 2010
    Started bromocriptine to lower prolactin level 2010
    Clear HSG 11/2010 :)
    DH morphology = 4, rest of SA looked good 01/2011
    02/2011 First Clomid 50mg cycle
    BFP 03/02/2011
    No heartbeat at 10w5d 04/18/2011; D&C 04/23/2011
    07/2011 Second Clomid 50mg cycle, BFN
    08/2011 Third Clomid 50mg cycle, BFN
    10/2011 First Clomid 100mg cycle with Ovidrel trigger = BFN
    11/2011 Second Clomid 100mg cycle with Ovidrel trigger = BFN
    12/2011 Third Clomid 100mg cycle with Ovidrel trigger = BFFN
    01/2012 Fourth Clomid 100mg cycle with Ovidrel trigger = ?

    I found out at exactly 6 weeks on the dot at my first u/s.  I had two follies.  If I remember correctly one was 17 mm and the other 19 mm the night I triggered w/ IUI 36 ish hours later.   Ask what your progesterone level is.  That is a better indicator of multiples...great beta though!!!!
