Beta question, esp twins

sovvv · May 2011

My first beta at 14dp5dt was about 1200, then my second beta at 16dp5dt was about 3900. My nurse and doctor won't comment yet, and my 1st ultrasound isn't for another week, but I'm wondering if it could be twins? I know these numbers are really high for a singleton based on what I've found wandering around the web. I wish betabase was up because I've heard that's really helpful. I guess I'm really just trying to pass the time until my sono by over-analyzing everything I possibly can

Some twin mommas had high betas, some twin mommas had lower betas.

Some singleton mommas had high betas, some singleton mommas had lower betas.

Can't tell by betas, but you could look at www.BetaBase.info to see what others have gotten with multiples and singleton pregnancies.

Just for information's sake, they stopped testing my beta levels at 11dp5dt. Prior to that, at 9dp5dt, it was 189 and at 11dp5dt, it was 560. I'm guessing if they kept testing, my numbers would have continued to climb.

And, we're pregnant with twins!

Good luck at your first u/s!

I can only speak from my experience... my betas were:

9dp5dt: 452

11dp5dt: 1,026

18dp5dt: 11,750

ETA: I am having twins.

My betas weren't very high but rose very quickly. See siggy for exact #s

I had high betas, and so far have been told that I just have one in there

I had pretty normal beta's - 9dp5dt was just 118 and we're having twins. Good luck with your u/s either way!

My betas were really high (I was right in the middle for twins on beta base) and we thought for sure there were going to be two in there...but sure enough, I'm only pregnant with one.

The u/s is the only real way to know...hope the wait goes quickly.

Betas for triplets are in siggy.

GL to you!

Twin betas in siggy. I know it can be different for everyone.

Beta #'s for my twins are in my siggy. My numbers were similar to yours & I remember looking on beta base I was on the high end for a singleton and low end for twins. Like other ladies have said, beta numbers don't mean a whole lot when it comes to multiples you really have to wait for your first u/s. Good luck!
