Re: What does by beta mean? anyone?

Thank you!! I definitely think I will be able to rest a little easier! Yes, my ultrasound is on the 16th. If that looks normal, is that usually when they release you to an OBGYN?

Re: What does by beta mean? anyone?

Just got by beta number back from this morning and it was 911! I think that's good since it doubled? I don't go back until Nov. 16...another torturous 3ww!! Thanks for everyone's support! :)

Re: What does by beta mean? anyone?

Thanks for everyone's positive words! This has been so new and overwhelming for us! I didn't want to do too much reading/research ahead of time, so I wouldn't obsess over everything!
I have my next beta on Wednesday, so keeping our fingers crossed! Best of luck to you guys!! xoxo

What does by beta mean? anyone?

So, this is our first time with ivf. I am trying to learn as we go and not get too ahead of myself on what to expect. I had my first beta today. I am 12dp3dt and my beta number was 409. Is that good?
