Anyone Doc have 2nd Beta 7 days later

Post by Elvisbaby »

Okay so I already unhappy with my clinic.

I got my BFP on Monday. My beta was 211. Happy great.

Then the doc says no 2nd beta until 7 days later. So I call try to get one early they won't even humor me. But that is another story.

So has anyone else not need a 2nd beta until 7 days later?

I am truly an overthinker, but I can't help it. Please any word of encouragement would be appreciated.

Hi Elvisbaby,

Both clinics I've been a patient to all have me go back 2-3 days later to make sure the hCG doubles. So I don't understand why they refuse to do it again until 7 days later. You shoule really ask for it again!

My first beta was 64 at 14 dpo. I can't go back until a week from this Friday, which would be 10 days. I went in earlier than I was supposed to, but had I gone when I was supposed to (this Friday), I also would have to wait 7 days.

Good luck to you.

Mine didn't do a second beta. My beta was 14 days past transfer and the next appt was the ultrasound 3 weeks later at which point they check for location and a heartbeat. Both of those are later than most I've seen, but I guess medically they can't change anything so my clinic doesn't do the extras. (I don't know if a different HCG # would change their procedure, but that is what they did with me.)
