GHOST OR ANYONE-3RD BETA DIDN'T DOUBLE

Post by mspeaches1209 »

JUST WONDERING IF ANYONE WOULD CARE TO SHARE THEIR THOUGHTS. I POSTED LAST WEEK ABOUT MY LOW BETA-52. I WENT AGAIN ON TUESDAY, 16DPO-110. WE DOUBLED SO WE WERE THRILLED. THEN YESTERDAY-18DPO THE # WAS ONLY 185. RE SAID HE SEES THIS ALL THE TIME AND IT COULD BE A SLOW-GROWER. I CANNOT HELP FEELING LIKE THIS IS OVER!! HE WANTS ANOTHER ON MONDAY AND SAYS THE # NEEDS TO BE IN THE 600-700 RANGE? WHAT ARE THE CHANCES THAT EVERYTHING COULD BE FINE? HONESTLY?
TIA

I wouldn't give up hope just yet. Every pregnancy is different and your numbers don't fall far from the "normal" curve. Try to stay positive (I know how hard it is), this could be for real! Congratulations!

I don't know what your chances are, but it's not zero. It's still increasing. I've seen lower than yours, and even a decreasing hCG once, that went on to live birth.

Hi Emily

My 1st beta with my little girl was 52. My 2nd 2 days later was 81, so mine also didnt double! I didnt have any further beta's and had to wait for my scan at 6 weeks which was fine. I had no further worries with my pregnancy and now have a very bright, lively 2 year old.

Wishing you all the best.

Love Kim
