Hi sorry for just barging in. I'm on the 2IF board.
At roughly 5 weeks my beta is only 19.
The nurse is contacting the doctor tomorrow and is going to call me back.
She told me it could just be early due to my late ovulation and long cycles...does anyone have any low beta successes?
She said she had seen women with really high betas with pregnancies that didnt stick and has seen women with low ones that did.
TIA

I had a big crying meltdown to my husband that I was afraid to go to the mall because I was afraid it was *too much* physically lifting stroller, etc. So I'm hoping that's the hormones kicking in :-/ if not, then I am crazy.
