Pregnant after IF

Low beta?

Hi ladies!  I got my BFP yesterday at what I believe was 11 DPO.  I didn't temp or do treatment this cycle, so I really am not sure exactly when I o'd.  I went for a beta today per my REs suggestion, and it was 19.  :/ Any chance it's just so low because I'm so early?  Any possibility everything is going to be ok?  I'm so upset.  Thanks for any insight you may have.

    My beta with DD at 6p5dt was 17.  That was the day after I got my first BFP and it was on a digital.   She's an adorable almost 2 year old now.

  • 11dpo is *really* early. My beta 14 dpo was 150 with twins. So if you figure it would have been 75 with a singleton, it would have been 30 something 12 dpo, so probably around 20-ish on 11 dpo. Smile

    And I know several people who have had successful pregnancies with 14dpo betas of 40.  You won't really know which direction things are going until beta #2. The number doesn't matter... just whether it is increasing!

    Good luck!

  • With you not knowing exactly when you o'd, it might be early for you to have a high beta.  It also doesn't matter too much of the number at first but how it is doubling.  Do you have a beta 2 scheduled?  Try not to worry too much.  Congrats on the BFP!

  • My first was a 9, at 9 or 10DPO.  You can see from my ticker things progressed just fine.  Don't worry!!
