Beta #s, ultrasound... worried. Anyone help!!!

Post by Rosario »

My betas are shown below. I have no idea when my LMP but since the beginning I was scared about this being an ectopic pregnancy. At first RE was worried then said because of my numbers it really didn't seem like it was. I have an ultrasound tomorrow morning and I am terrified to know there is still a chance of something being abnormal. Based on the betas does it still look like a normal pregnancy?

*03/18: 89
03/19: 111
*03/21: 410
03/22: 720
03/24: 1615

(Betas with star were done at a different lab)

Your Beta looks wonderfull so do not worry, relax and try to enjoy every second of this pregnancie all this difficult ivf, so God knows why he gave this pregnancie naturally it is for a good reason, please try to relax you will be just fine.
These number dont look like an ectopic believe me I had 3 natural ectopics pregnancie all rupture so i had to have surgerie.
Think positive and let us know about the US and i wish you all the luck.

Like Tammy and Jamila said, those look great.

The chance of an ectopic is very low with numbers like that. Stop worrying.

I have no idea why they got you worried like that.

Congratulations.
