89 hour doubling time :(

TL-RN · 10-02-2009, 11:44 AM

Any hope?

We did a 3dt and beta at 15DPO was 158. Today at 17DPO it's only 231 which is an 89 hour doubling time

I'm devastated... this was our third IVF.

Betas can be so difficult! The good news is it did go up! I would ask your clinic for a 3rd beta if they are not already doing one. I know it is hard, but keep the faith, take it easy and treat yourself well until another beta or u/s provides some more insight.

Good Luck and keep us posted!

Thanks. I have a repeat on Sunday and am praying for it to double this time...

Third beta was around 300 after another 2 days.... something like 127 hour doubling this time.

TL-I'm having closevto the exact same situation. My numbers are doubling slowly too. I'm trying not to freak out but it's soooo hard. But we are pregnant. And we need to TRY to give our lil embies a CALM place to grow. Maybe one of the embryos isn't making it or something. Doubling timebis set by averages and people vary. I know of plenty of people who had numbers like ours and even lower who not only had singletons but twins too! I know what your going through because I'm experiencing the same thing you right at this very moment. If ya want a buddy pm me. But don't you dare give up yet. I could be completey fine. And just another thing you will look back and see that you beat. You must check out betabase.info. The lowest beta from a successful preg is 16 at 19dpo. So just look around there. It's helping me for sure.
