Re: my betas didnt double :(

  • I replied on 1st tri:

    Oh Becca! Don't worry yet!!! Betas should double every 48-72 hours. Ask them to do another blood test in a few days.

    Praying for you.

    I do not want to see you back on TTGP.  I'd rather join you at 1st tri.

    ETA: Also, "An increase of 60% in 48 hours is still considered normal" (https://www.babymed.com/hcg-level) - your increase was just about 60% in 48 hrs according to this calculator  : https://www.babymed.com/tools/hcg-calculator

  • sorry you are discouraged, but like PP said, you are still OK with those numbers. I hope you can get another beta or something soon to see how things are moving along! (((hugs)))

  • They are still going up... my first betas only had a doubling time of 53hrs, the next draw it went to 40.... hang in there hon. Anything under 72 hrs is within the normal range and they can shoot up so don't give up hope. I'm keeping everything crossed that next time they are going to go up even more!

  • Don't give up hope yet - they're still going up!

    Maybe try and get more bloodwork done if your doctor hasn't ordered it already.

    Keep us posted.

    My doctor said the only thing he was super concerned with is them going down. Keep your chin up Becca and ask for another one in a couple of days!

  • please don't give up! mine did not double in 48 hours but they still went up and now we have a heartbeat. please do not worry!!!

    dpo 15 116

    dpo 17 233

    dpo 19 434 (i was so worried...this was with more than 48 hours btw draws)

    dpo 21 971

     so as you can see they doubled just barely, then didn't double, then more than doubled. do not stress!!!! are you getting another one done? the waiting can be soo long but its the only way to tell whats going on in there for now. hugs and GL!!!

    Those numbers aren't bad!  My RE said betas should increase 60-100% every 48 hours.  Your numbers increased more than 60%.

  • FX that everything will be okay. Are you getting another draw? They went up so that's good.  You could always call the office and speak to the dr or nurse and ask them what they think about the numbers.

  • Thanks guys. 

    I got my HCG levels drawn again today at exactly 72 hours so we shall see by tuesday at the latest what they are. I am praying I hear tomorrow and that they are above 420. Then I will know everything is ok.

    I am scared. I am so attached to this baby and keep feeling like this is my take home baby. I can't lose this baby...I have already lost 3, I can't handle another m/c.

    If you have any thoughts and prayers to give, please I need them :(
