First Beta only 29, anyone gone on to have a normal Preg?

Post by Kelly72 »

I got my first Beta back today and it was only 29. I have been doing boosters of Ovidrill with projestrone suppositories. My Dr. said my first Beta may be a false + cause the Ovidrill is the HCG horomone.

Anyone have this happen and it was a good result?

Hey Kelley - me again - lol!

I bumped a thread for you from a few months back. I looked for it because I knew it would help reassure you - it's called "Let's Compare Betas".

You see - it really isn't over for you yet!

I posted this in another spot for you but this is what I know....

I had my last booster of HCG on a Saturday and my first test was a 30. THey told me my 46 looked great. I think 29 is still good. I think it would be lower than that if you were not pregnant but I am not positive. When I did a web search it said chances are your pregnant (without any HCG) if you are above 5 so maybe the HCG only gives you a little. GOod luck for Monday, I am pulling for you and your ebryos!!!

So your first Beta was only 30? Then went up to 46? My last booster was on Sunday and my Beta was today, so that was about 4 days... Your last HSG was Sat. when was your test? I forget.

Anyhow, we are doing another Beta tomorrow to see if it goes up, even just a little, and then the final on Monday. I called and said I just was going crazy so that is why we are doing it tomorrow. Thanks

I had five days from my HCG shot to my first beta which was 46. My second beta went to 228.

Good luck tomorrow. I think it is a good idea you are going so you do not drive yourself crazy. It only matters if it goes up

Sam,

Thanks for all your thoughts and support. We did another test today and it was only 19. Looks like it is over for this cycle. Life sucks right now.

I am so sorry Kelly.

The same thing happened to us.. we had a beta of 32 on test day. Sadly the numbers had fallen a couple of days later.

Just remember you DID get pregnant. For whatever reason those embies didn't hang on, but there's absolutely no reason why they shouldn't next time.

But I do remember lots of people telling me this at the time and I wasn't ready to hear this.

I grieved for quite a while for the 'near pregnancy'. I hope you manage to find peace soon and I am thinking about you. Life does suck , but it just makes the wonderful things when they do happen even more precious.

Take care
Bec
