Hello,
I am 16 dpo today and have been spotting since yesterday. I went in for HCG beta and it was 47.6 That’s so low. Although I’m not sure where it should be. I’ve been testing everyday since 11dpo and Lines seem to be progressing, however I think there has been a stand still with lines from yesterday to today. I have another beta tomorrow afternoon so hopefully it doubles appropriately. So i guess my question would be, what do you ladies think? i attached my tests as well

I wouldn’t go by the line strength as hard as that is because they can vary so much for so many different reasons. Your beta will clarify things much more although you may need to have it repeated a few times. Your tests have clearly progressed but when you test everyday it can sometimes be difficult to spot good progression because hcg can take up to four days to double. I think from memory that’s at the lower end of what is a very wide normal scale for hcg, but it is still completely within normal! Lots of women have slower to rise hcg and go on to have a healthy baby and lots of women have spotting and go on to have a healthy baby too :hugs:

They’re progressing which is the main thing. They’re not getting fainter :) I always kick myself for testing everyday then have to organise my photos to line them up in a collage app because you can’t compare a dry test from two days ago to a test you used an hour ago. It is such a hassle. Should just wait really ](*,)
 
My frer stored at 12 13 13 15 and 16dpo then I finally got a line stealer at 17dpo but only just. Didn't get a full line stealer until about 20 dpo.
Ure lines look great.

I really hope ure next blood draw brings u find news.
 
@happycupcake - definitely kicking myself for not just waiting lol now that's all I can do

@Bevziibubble Thank You

@Suggerhoney That's kind of reassuring along with the fact that they aren't getting fainter. I think after my beta this afternoon, Ill be able to stop poas and relax a little.
 
Level came back at 104.0 so it did double but barely. Doctor doesn’t seem too concerned she says it can be normal so early. I guess I’ll relax now.
 
Sometimes it can take a while to really get going so I once read. I can’t even remember where now, but it did double which is great. I’m sure I read an increase of 60% is ok?

yes, I have read that too. Its much easier to relax today. I am not sure If I should ask for 1 more beta or leave it because my doctor didn't ask for a 3rd test and I have 2 ultrasounds coming up one in 2 weeks and another the following week. what do you think? 1 more beta or wait for U/S?
 
That's great hon. So glad they doubled. I've never had hcg bata bloods done because they don't do that hear but if I had the choice and was offered a 3rd I think personally I wud have it.
Praying everything keeps progressing and u have a sticky little beanie in there. [-o<

Thank you so much, I agree, I think I'm going to ask for one more today. And since she wants my pregnancy work up done anyway I think Ill get it all done at once.
