Has anyone ever started out with a really low hcg# and had a viable pregnancy? My BETA was REALLY low at 11dpt (8.5) At 13dpt it went to 13.5 and at 15dpt it doubled to 32.9. I know that these #'s are way too low, yet my Dr. tells me to cross my fingers and hope. Any advice? I go for my next BETA tomorrow.
Kat2,
I know someone with thier first beta being an 8 (I think it was 10 days post transfer) and ended up with normal pregnancy. Good luck.

I have a friend who gets pregnant naturally. She will be pregnant for 8+ weeks and not show up on a urine test and even not show on a blood test. This will be her second child. She doesn't get any morning sickeness because her hcg is so low. Let's hope that's the case for you!
My hcg was low 24 and then only progressed to 26. then two weeks later it was 836. That is a bad sign if it doesn't double correctly, it is a sign of a tubal pregnancy, which is what mine was.
Make sure you feel good about what the doctor tells you and get second opinions if you don't feel right. I would treat your body like you will have a viable pregnancy, there are plenty of miracle babies out there! Good luck.
