I know this is a broken record but...

I know you hear the same questions all the same but I am bursting and have to talk to someone!

I had D IUI with Clomid and hcg shot. I was unmonitored (just triggered after 3 highs on my cbfm).

My first beta at 17 days post iui/ ovulation was 1788. At 20 days post iui it was 7768.

My progesterone was 21.9. What do you all think? I go for an us next week and I will be back with red cheeks when I find out it is only one!

Thanks! And congrats to all you wonderful multi moms!!!

I plugged your numbers into Babymed's HcG calculator and they came out to be higher than the "high" level. It's quite possible that you are carrying more than one, but beta numbers are not the most indicative of number of implanted embryos. Only an ultrasound will tell you for sure.

Best of luck!

Thank you for the info, I had never heard of that site. I see you are well into your third trimester! Congratulations!

Those numbers do seem pretty high, I would guess more than one if I had to, but there are stories out there of people with super high betas only having one. Good luck with the u/s and keep us posted.

Wow that's a high beta! Have you looked at betabase (.org I think)? If I had to guess I'd definitely guess multiples!
