High betas and multiples?

[Anonymous]

For those of you who had multiples did you have high betas to begin with? I had betas drawn and I was somewhere between 16-20dpo at the most. My beta came back at 1355. I am super nervous it’s twins. I had been meeting with a RE to discuss treatment (11 months trying, 2 chemicals and one 6 week miscarriage) and found out I was pregnant naturally. This is the highest beta this early I have ever gotten.

are you the person trying for #3? do we need to follow each of your pregnancies? please be considerate.

Did you also post on the other forum? High betas do not always mean multiples.

I took Clomid and at 14dpo, my beta was 737. I had healthy twin boys.

However, as you know, the beta number doesn't really tell you a whole lot about whether it's multiples, especially since you don't know exactly how many days dpo you are.

OP I know this is nearby wracking. My twin pregnancy the first beta was like 700, the second 1400. You could see a faint line on day 8 post transfer. Doc did ultrasound about where you are now and saw two tiny sacs. Confined twins.
But many have singletons with same beta. Good luck ! And congrats!

You should stop posting multiple threads. I know it’s hard but you just have to wait and see. You’ll know soon enough.

First beta at 14 days post 5 day transfer (FET) was nearly 3000. Singleton. Healthy pregnancy.
There’s a huge range of normal.

Quit posting on multiple boards a question that will not get you clear answers. No a high beta does not equal twins, but it sometimes can. This answer is the same no matter how many ways you ask. If you Google it, the same answer will appear. Wait till your ultrasound and quit asking.

Check betabase.info to compare numbers, but there’s a really broad range of normal for this, especially if you’re not certain of your ovulation date. A couple of days off can make a big difference. I had high betas with #2, and she was a singleton.

NP. I'm pretty sure OP is the same poster from multiple threads who never received confirmation via bloodwork of negative HCG after miscarriage, despite being told to do so by multiple posters. So, there may be other concerns here beyond just whether or not she is carrying twins.

At 20 DPO my twin beta was 2400.

It’s a myth

Just curious, how do people figure out that this poster is the same one on multiple threads and that she never received confirmation of mc.

Op here - I apologize for the cross post. I thought this would be a better forum to post regarding betas since not everybody gets them done when you are pregnant. Please feel free to delete this post. I did not mean for it to be insensitive.

I will refrain from posting here again. Again please delete this thread if put.

Because she's started quite a few posts both here and on the Expectant Moms board in the last month or 2 (some with nearly identical wording), and the details all match up.
If you read these boards enough, it isn't too hard to track the frequent posters.

OP, I really hope this works out for you. Please try to relax and hold on until that first ultrasound.
