I am 37 yo and my husband is 30 yo. We started our IVF Process December 2010. We became pregnant with twins but lost them at 8 weeks. I have 2 children from my previous marriage (21 yo son & 16 yo daughter) My husband does not have any children. I had to have my tubes tied due to massive blood clots in both lungs in 2000. My doctor does not do 2 weeks he does 1 week. My ET was on 3/6. My beta is 27. The nurse said that they see the numbers start out low in Frozen Embryo Transfers and I will do another test on Friday. According to betabase.com the median numbers 10 days past ovulation for: Single Pregnancy is 15, for a Twin Pregnancy is 27 and Triple Pregnancy is 29. So this may be a good number since I am not 10 days past ovulation. IDK, just praying it doubles on Friday.
My question is with it not being a 2 week wait is this an ok beta number for a frozen embryo transfer?
Re: Cautious Intro and Question
It's true that FETs often result in lower starting betas. It's really the doubling that matters more, not the initial number.
Just to make sure I understand,
1) Is the beta from today (which is 8 days past transfer)?
2) were the embies frozen at Day 5 past retrieval? If so, you are currently 13 dpo, not 10 dpo.
