Pregnant after IF

Beta #2

Well I got my second Beta in today, I really am not sure what to think about it. The nurse didn't sound too pleased, but from what I was reading it doesn't sound THAT bad. She want's me to go back Tuesday and wants to see it above 200. I'm not sure ladies, give me your input.

  • i think you are fine based on betas a lone...it more than doubled.  anything can happen but those arent bad numbers.  you cant listen to nurses - they are dumb, they dont know anything about IF.
  • That looks good to me... the doubling is what matters- and you are well above that.

    Good luck!

  • Thank you all for the responses, it is putting my mind at ease :) I also thought that it was good since it doubled but the nurse just made me doubt it all with her reaction, she didn't say it was bad, but she made it sound like that. But maybe I am just over analyzing everything. I just never thought it would ever happen and I'm terrified to lose it! 

    Naybird - That is such a relief to hear that you started that low and are doing good, I was so worried but you gave me some hope!

  • Great second beta!!!
    TTC since 06/2010 HSG-clear,SA-good DX:Unexplained IUI#1-(May) 100mg of clomid +trigger + progerstrone supp=BFN IUlI#2-(June) 100mg of clomide+trigger+progesterone supp=BFN JuLy Break for vaca. IUI#3 (Aug) 100mg of clomid+trigger+progesterone=BFN IVF trial started in Oct-Nov ER-15 Retrieved, 13 mature, 11 fertilized. 5dt on 11-15-11 Beta #1 9dp 5dt= 107 Beta#2 331 Lilypie First Birthday tickers
  • At 15dpo (technically 12dp3dt), mine was 66 and my nurse just wanted it to be over 50. 48 hours later, it was 218, so there's no reason to think anything bad at this point.

    After 22 cycles and 4 failed IUIs, Serafina joined our family through IVF/ICSI, born 8.28.12
    Our surprise baby, Juliette, is due 12.8.14!

  • Those numbers look fantastic!!  If you want to see some low betas, mine are in my siggy (at 15 dpo it was 29 and at 17 dpo it was only 60).  Anyhow, the most important thing is appropriate rise.  They want to see it double within 72 hours.  Yours almost tripled in 48!!
