Low Everything.

chickyclgchickyclg member
in 1st Trimester
I got a surprise BFP the cycle after my failed FET.  Now I am 4 weeks and my beta just came back at an 18 and my estrogen and progesterone are also low.   The RE told me to start estrace and PIO today and hopefully save the pregnancy. I'm just having a hard time staying positive because this just feels like a cruel joke.

    All betas have to start somewhere! 
    As long as they are doubling, try to stay positive.

    have you checked out betabase.info?  might give you some reassurance.  Also hang in there, doubling is way more important than the initial number.

    My first beta was 29. My sweet one month old is laying on my chest right now. Hopeful for continued pregnancy for you! Get your number tested again and see if it is doubling.
