HCG Number is in...what do ya think?

Post by christiedawn »

I am 12dp3dt (14dpo) they just called me with my numbers...101.1. I am thinking this is a good number (nurse said they are looking for anything above 50) but didn't give me much detail.

What do you think? I can't find much info out there about HCG numbers after IVF 3 day transfer....should I just be looking at it as in I am 14dpo?

Thanks,

Christie

Looks like a good number to me! The real important thing is for it to increase for your next beta. The trend and 2nd and 3rd beta are almost more important than the 1st.

Congratulations! That's a great beta. Remember, the beta range at 4 weeks is 5-426 and at 5 weeks, it's 18-7340. Like you, I tested 14 days post ER and my 1st beta was only 66. I'm now 8w4d pregnant. My u/s at 6 weeks showed a normal pregnancy and HR>110, and follow-up u/s at 8 weeks showed normal growth and HR 154. I know it's hard, but try not to stress over the numbers and start enjoying your pregnancy. Good luck!
