Beta Questions

Hi Ladies,

Okay...I'm 6dp3dt and my Beta Day is on December 30th....(soooo far away...ahahhahah). 

I have a few questions for you.

1. How early can you test at home?

2. If you test at home and get a postive result does it mean you're pregnant (I know it's a crazy question, but can you get a wrong result b/c of meds?)?

3. What makes a positive beta count? (Can you tell if it's multiples based on higher number?)

4.  Do you find out your beta at the dr or do they call you later?

 

If you can think of any other answers I might need to know...just add:-) Thank you!

Re: Beta Questions

  • 1. Implantation happens 7-10dpo, so I would wait until ATLEAST 12dpo, but know that it might not be accurate yet.

    2. Trigger shot can show up as a false positive, but that should be out of your system by about 10dpo.

    3. You can't tell how many are in there based on the beta number.  I've seen high betas = a singleton & low betas that ended up being multiples.

    4.  They call you with the results.

  • This might be a really dumb question, but is your DPO the day of retrieval?
