Looking for Success Stories for Low Betas (loss mentioned)

in Success after IF

Hello,

 I've posted on TTTC once or twice, but I'm mostly a stalker.  I know that the ladies over there usually recommend to come to this board if someone needs a boost, which I guess is what I'm looking for right about now.  I am 29 and my DH is 35.  Currently, I'm under the care of an RE and we've found that I have ovulation problems due to low AMH (0.22) and high FSH (11).   We started with the IUI process in April with the 1st one being a bust.  The 2nd IUI I became pregnant, but miscarried at 5w5d.  Today was my first beta draw for my 3rd IUI and it came back as 5miu, so they will be retesting on Monday to see if the numbers rise or drop.  Realistically, I know it's pretty low after the 2ww and might be a c/p (I started lightly spotting a bit after I got home from the RE's), but I was just curious if anyone here has had a successful pregnancy with the first beta being extremely low like this.

I appreciate any answers!  Thanks!

Me: 29; DH: 35
Married 7/19/09; TTC since 3/12

    My first beta was low (23) and i thought we had a BFN on the HPT.  Luckily, beta 2 doubled.  I'm now 10 weeks going strong.  Sometimes it's just a matter of late implantation.  Good luck!

    Hope you see a nice rise on Monday. FX!
