Ghost and all- opinion about betas

Post by Winterhopes »

I am happy to announce my BFP after an FET of two blasts (day 5 and day 6). Thanks for all the great advice and hope.

Can I get your opinion on these betas:
18DPO: 1312
20 DPO: 2250

Symptoms I felt a few days ago (cramping, twinges nearly constantly for a couple days) have disappeared. I had hoped the beta rising would be more??? Thanks. Next beta not til 4 days from now.

It's rising nicely, but not quite ideally. This is very common, even in successful pregnancies. It usually means nothing. I would not worry over it.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

GHOST-

My RE nurse keeps telling me I need to be mentally prepared for twins but everything I have read says my numbers are in normal range for just one baby. I had my ER on 1/11/2011...ET 1/16/2011 2 5 blastocysts...on 1/26/2011 my beta was 345...1/31/2011 was 1565...and 2/3/2011 my beta is 4297. My u/s is 2/15/2011. Are my numbers ok?

Your numbers look great. Could easily be twins, but it's not so high that it suggests a high probability of twins. Maybe somewhere near 50/50.
