PLEASE HELP...I NEED SOME HOPE!!!!

[ruthiej74]

I am 9dp5dt and just got my first beta result back. My hcg level is a 15 which she said is a positive however a low positive. Please help...has anyone gone on to have a healthy pregnancy with this low of a first beta??? I don't know what to think at this point. Could I be having a chemical pregnancy or ectopic???

A positive is a positive. Its your second beta that will give you a better idea of where you stand. My fingers are crossed for you, keep your head up! Wishing you doubling vibes!!

My first betas with my son were so low (not sure of the exact number) that they told me right away that it was not a viable pregnancy and that there was a good chance that it was ectopic. My numbers increased, but definitey did not double. We held our breath until we saw the heartbeat at 7 weeks. He was conceived naturally.

Definitely don't give up hope! Babies have their own time tables

I have been around these boards for almost 2 years and have seen countless women go on to have healthy pregnancies and even 1 who was pregnant with twins when her beta was only a 13 to start with. Hang in there. It's not over. The best thing you can do for your little embie, is to keep your PMA and to keep your chin up. Wishing you the best!
