All of this is so reassuring! Thank You!

Trying not to worry!

I'll keep yall posted.

Hello! I hope you read my post~

My first beta was so low, they told me I was "indeterminate". I always thought it was a pregnant/not pregnant issue, but indeterminate? Well I am here to say that Lily June, who started out with less than 25 on my blood test is great!!! She's doing awesome. I just saw her yesterday (Actually that's how we found out that she's a she!) and she was kicking up a storm, although I couldn't feel it at all.

My first beta was indeterminate, and I am not sure the number, they would not tell me.

my second beta was later, now I can't remember as well, but it came back at 96. That was probably around 4w5d. It was still low and my doctor requested that I come back every day until it reached over 200. I politely declined. (wow that would have been stressful!)

My third test came back at 7650!! That's when I knew she was sticking around. Try not to worry, if that is even possible? PM me if you want any more information, and I will be a lot more specific!

Im not sure. But your numbers arent going to quadruple. In 4 days it may only double or just over. They are supposed to double evry 2-3 days. My numbers started off at 13 but that was a week b4 Af was due. at 14 dpo mine were 1310. But mine are really high. i thought I had more than one.

When I was newly pg with my second son, not only did I have low numbers, but they weren't doubling as they should. The Dr. told me that a miscarriage was inevitable.... he's almost 9 now.

UPDATE!!!

The nurse at my OBs office just called.... (The 'STAT' status on my test order obviously works! LOL!) My numbers have come back already and went from 79 on Monday to 560 today!!!!!!!!!! She wanted to caution me that THAT big of a jump could mean multiples. (I almost passed out!!) My Sweet BF and I are so happy. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers!!!

Our first Ultrasound is scheduled for April 2 to see if we are going to be parents of 1 or possibly 2 LOs!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I'll keep yall posted!

I need some reassurance that these low numbers don't mean another MC for me.

Thank You Ladies!

Yep at 13 dpo I had hcg of 66 and am having twins! I would have thought it would have been much higher! At 10 weeks it was normal for a singleton prenancy, then at 13 weeks that was when I found out there was two in there from a scan so Im glad I didnt know earlier, I would have been freaking out!
