Please tell me this beta is okay

Ladies, I can't beleive I am posting here. I tx 1 early blast and three slower than morula. I have been VERY crampy since yesterday. Today is 8dp5dt and I am shocked that I just got a positive beta but it is only 29. Honestly, is this okay? The re said I have to increase my estrace to 2x a day (I don't know why) and said it's a little lower than he'd like but its okay.

Please ladies tell me if I should have hope.

There are many people who start out with low betas and go on to have healthy pregancies. Try to relax and wait to see what the next one tells you!

Good luck!

Jikki, I'm kinda in the same boat. I had my first beta at 10dt5dt on tues and it was 31 and on 12dt5td it was like 58. It didn't double but the dr. wasn't worried and didn't say I needed another one-I asked. I have my u/s set for June 25th. Hang in there.

Thank you ladies for the encouragement. My beta two days ago at 10dp5dt came back at 101. I am getting ready to leave to go now for my third beta. My doc was happy with the 101 and so am I but... I wish it was a high# like so many of the other ladies. I have to say I am so grateful and shocked that I got a bfp, I was SURE it would be -'ve but now that I have my bfp, I so want to keep it.

Anyway, I'm wishing you lots of growing and doubling thoughts Heather!

Praying the beta triples today!

Love
Jikki

Awesome 2nd beta...best of luck on your third!

Jikki · 06-10-2007, 04:04 PM

Thank you for the encouragement Athena. 3rd Beta today wasn't as good as the 2nd. Only 188 so it didn't double.

Re's office has told me to come back on Thursday when I will be officially 5 weeks for u/s and b/w. So no more betas until then.

That's only 4 days away and I'm wondering if at this rate if they will even be able to see anything...doesn't the beta have to be over 1000 or something like that?

I'm going to try to stay positive but my heart really sank today when it didn't double. Not to mention I really not experiencing many symptoms!

I will keep hoping and praying and try not to be sad.

8dp5dt beta 29
10dp5dt beta 101
12dp5dt beta 188
