[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That does not seem super optimistic, OP.  As you well know, it's not so much about the numbers as the predictable doubling over time.  I have not done all the math, but sadly it doesn't seem to be going up fast enough in your case.  I am very sorry.[/quote]

Thank you - yeah, I know I shouldn’t be particularly optimistic but hate that I feel some hope too. So your concern is less about how low that # is for how far out from transfer I am, and more that it didn’t double (…or even close) between the first two betas?[/quote]

Yes.

I had a very low beta pregnancy (my beta was 8 at 10dpt.  8!!!) but the numbers kept doubling right on track and that "prepare for a miscarriage" baby just turned 10.  But my doctors were very clear that the numbers had to consistently double.  A slow rise is not good, no matter where the numbers start.[/quote]

That's great but there is no recorded pregnancy where where the beta reading didn't increase by 75% in the span of two days. Sadly, OP's numbers are not there.[/quote]

OP here - fwiw if you’re talking about the first two betas, the nurse’s opinion is that my first beta may indeed have been 25 or so, but was (obviously) affected by being on daily HCG boosters. Which I guess could make sense, but then I’m still worried about how low everything seems [/quote]
