Were you on meds? Part of my beta was testing my estrogen(E2) and progesterone (P4).

Three betas and three u/s until week 8 after IVF. We had twins.

3 betas and 2 u/s. I was released into the care of my regular OB once a heartbeat was confirmed.

3 betas and then 2 u/s (6 weeks and 8 weeks). I saw my regular OB at 10 weeks. NT scan with the high-risk OB at 12 weeks.

I went to the OB at 11 weeks.

Same here except the third ultrasound was because there was a slight SGH he wanted me to stay on meds until a full 10 weeks.

I had some bleeding, so ended up with several extra ultrasounds before being released to my OB at 9 weeks. If all is normal, though, after your betas, you will probably have one ultrasound at 6 weeks and then "graduate." Good luck!

Three betas and then an u/s between 6 - 7 weeks. Then I went to my OB's office for a sono and check up at 8 weeks.

Congrats! I did IVF and had 3 betas and 2 ultrasounds.

I scheduled my u/s as late as I could - 6w4d and 8w4d - instead of coming in at 6w0d as I could have. Sometimes between 6-7 weeks the heartbeat isn't there yet, but things are still ok. I delayed so that I'd have a better chance of seeing the heartbeat.

You'll usually move to a regular OB after a 6w or an 8w u/s. congratulations!!!

Sorry--that the HCG was doubling

Did two blood tests to see that the beta was doubling and then an u/s at 6 weeks. Did a final lap thanking everyone and went off to my OB.

Congratulations.

Hi ladies - I just got my BFP after my third IUI (gonal f plus trigger) at Shady Grove. I have a beta scheduled for Monday but was curious what the next series of appts will be - how many times do I go in for a beta - when do I go in for an ultrasound, how long until I switch to a normal ob? Thanks!!
