1st Trimester

Got my beta results!

I got my second set of betas today and I couldn't be happier! First beta was drawn at 10dpo and hcg was only 24. Left me a little worried but I knew that I was testing incredibly early so I just tried to relax. Yesterday at 17dpo my hcg was over 700! I feel like I can finally breath and not be so stressed out over every little thing now. 

So question...does 700 at 17dpo seem high to anyone? I'm a little concerned about having twins. Not that I wouldn't love to have twins, but this is my first baby and having 2 at a time scares the pee out of me! (Not that that's hard to do right now.) Anyone have experience with this? 

Also a follow up, I know it was 17dpo bc I chart and I have already looked at betabase.info

Re: Got my beta results!

  • Meh. I thought I was having twins too. I was at 1242 at 17 dpo. I've got just one.

  • Betas can vary wildly. A friend of mine had a beta of over 4000 at 20dpo and just had one little bean in there.

  • Yeah, betas don't indicate single or multiples, just that things are progressing or not progressing. Your numbers look good to me. My first draw was high and unless there is a baby hiding, we only heard one heartbeat.

  • That isn't a really high number.  My 14 day beta was over 1600 and there is only one little bay in here!

  • Like everyone has said, betas =/= twins. Mine were somewhere around 1,000 by 17dpo and I just have one baby in there.

    But congrats on the great #'s!
