Update: I met with my OB and he isn't hopeful. My initial beta came back at 86. I'm 4 weeks 2 days and he felt it was on the very low end. He also wasn't too happy to hear that my breast soreness has decreased. He's sending me for the second beta tomorrow morning and said to just take it easy until we see those results since the numbers are all relative.

Trying so hard to stay positive right now. Some of the personal experiences on this site are helping me to try to keep things in perspective. I know that first beta doesn't mean too much without the second one, so I'm still hopeful. The hardest part is just waiting and not knowing. Luckily I go for my 2nd beta tomorrow at 7:30AM and my doctor said he should have the results by early afternoon. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon



i don't think that is low at all! don't let your dr make you upset. he should have waited until you got the results of the next beta, because the initial one can vary widely. who knows when you implanted?

My sis had a much lower beta and she has a 4 year old from it. Don't give up and your dr should have said he was cautiously optimistic. Based on your history I can see them being cautious but to say it doesn't look good is premature IMO.

I was a little over 5 weeks and my first beta was only 27.5 and I had zero symptoms. My next beta went to a 68 still lower than your first. My baby is 7 months today. Don't lose hope, you are not out and everyone has different symptoms which come and go. Praying for you!

Updating to say I don't have much of an update yet. Doctor's office called yesterday to say they were still waiting on the beta results. I guess the lab ignored the "STAT" on the prescription. Hopefully I'll have some news this morning. I did have some lower back cramping on Wednesday night, but it wasn't terrible and wasn't accompanied by any spotting or anything. And my sore bb's came back yesterday and today. I'm remaining hopeful Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: I really want to thank everyone for all of the support and prayers. This board is just amazing. We haven't told any family or friends yet, so its just very comforting to have a place to come and get support and encouragement. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

My first beta was in the 50's! And it was a successful pregnancy. The other posters are right....the first one doesn't matter as much as how it rises. That's what my dr's office told me.

Any update? I'm really surprised they weren't more optimistic. I think that's a great first beta.

Doctor's office still doesn't have my results Chat Icon Chat Icon I've tried calling the lab about 300 times but it's just an automated service and they don't actually answer. I really hope I don't have to wait until Monday to find out.

Oh my gosh how frustrating!!! After worrying you (most likely unnecessarily) they should've gotten you those results ASAP. I'm sorry, hang in there!!

I just left a message on their answering service. I don't expect a call back, but maybe I'll get lucky.

I'm going to call my OB's office again at 2 and see if there's anything they can do, or if they have a different number for the lab that they can call. I don't want to go through the whole weekend not knowing what's going on.

That would make me nuts. I remember trying to get beta results and even emailed the lab and faxed a form to get them lol. I would keep calling and trying to get someone on the phone. Sometimes they won't release them to you though, but only to your dr.
