High betas first and second. Miscarriage chances??

[Anonymous]

This is my 4th cyle but 1st transfer. I turned 42 on October 26th.
5 day fresh transfer, 3 embryos ( 1 early blast, 2 morulas)

1st beta 1,760 (1,460)
2nd beta 4000 ( exactly 48 hours)

Havent done 3rd beta yet. I m really freaking out. I ve heard there is a good chance if initial hcg levels are high and doubling every 48 hours that indicates on going pregnancy 85% of the time.
Has anyone experienced first 2 betas high and 3rd one was low? Or anyone experienced miscarriage after high beta numbers?
I m over the moon but still afraid of miscarriage..
They said they didnt check my progesterone dont know why..
Thanks

Congratulations OP’! I actually had high betas with both my miscarriages amd viable pregnancies so it is not necessarily predictive. However, low betas are definitely a bad sign and you should be relieved you dont have to worry about that.

I'd say the betas are great and very encouraging. That's about all you can pin on that right now but "so far, so good" is what I said to myself when I finally got a BFP.

Keep us posted!

Those are great number, OP, but as you know you just have to sit back and wait. But as PP said, at least you don't have to worry about whether the numbers are high enough. Congrats and hope all goes smoothly.

Thank you all! 3rd beta is on Monday! Hoping it will not decrease for some reason.

I m sorry about the miscarriages.
May i ask what was your beta number and how many days past transfer? Particularly with miscarriages.
I just noticed a typo in my text. I meant:

1st beta 1,760 (14dpt)

That is a very high beta for embryos that were not full blasts at 14dpt. GL

My kids are 10 and 12 so I have no idea. My betas stayed high even after mixsed miscarriages, that I remember. Not IVF, but I did take progesterone ( two miscarriages before oldest child).

Those are great beta numbers! My friend (who is older than OP) just had BFP after IVF and her first two beta numbers were similar to yours, and she didn’t need to do the third beta because the second beta was already in 4000s. She is with SG. So I wouldn’t worry about the third beta. Remember, the beta increase slows down after it hits 1200 so the doubling time need not be 48 hours anymore.
I’ll be crossing fingers for you OP. Good luck!!!

those are very high betas. Given the situation it's probably twins.

[Anonymous]

Waiting is the worst, but those are really great betas! Good luck!

[Anonymous]

check out the website www.betabase.info - "only betas from pregnancies that have a known heartbeat will be part of our published statistics"

Like the previous poster said a high beta doesn't necessarily lower your miscarriage risk but it's a lot more encouraging than a low one.

A high beta doesn't necessarily mean multiples and they vary a lot from woman to woman.

Good luck! Try not to stress too much...hang in there.

My first beta was 89 at 9 dpt and 315 by 14 dpt. Yours are SUPER high. I'd guess twins.

[Anonymous]

I had very high betas like you OP- they’re two years old now. I wish you the best of luck!!!

[Anonymous]

Good luck OP!
I did experience high betas during one cycle which ended in an early m/c. But I also experienced high betas in a successful cycle. And lower betas in a successful cycle.
Hard to tell until you hear a heartbeat.
