Slow rising hcg levels, scan today and HB!!!!!

[gumb69]

I just had to post.
My emotions are all over the place!!!

My hcg levels weren't rising properly, so the IVF clinic told me to have a scan. So i booked and had a private scan today and there was a little sac and a hearbeat, measuring 108bpm.


I know we have a long way to go, but i really wasn't expecting to see a heartbeat as my hcg levels aren't doubling.
Is this a good bpm for 6 weeks??
Anybody know what this means? do i ignore the beta's from now on?

Congrats! Yes, ignore the betas now. Once you see a heart beat, they can check progress with scans and measurements. After about 6 weeks levels stop doubling anyway. Great news!!!
