There is a chance. Hang in there. Although the value is not doubling every two days as expected, it may still be O.K. If it starts to decline or plateau, then you are in trouble. Best of luck.

Dear Dr. Smith,
Today 18 days post day 3 embryo transfer my HCG is 252 and my progesterone is 32. (13 days PT HCG was 74, 16 days PT HCG was 145). Its still not close to doubling. Any thoughts?
thanks,
laura

Hang in there until the numbers start to go down or plateau. Until then, nobody really knows. Sorry. I'm sure you're going crazy not knowing what's going on.

Laura,

I am going through the same thing right now. 11/25 beta 104, 11/27 beta 164 and 11/29 beta 254. They aren't saying much my progesterone is 25 and I have to go on 12/5. What happened with your pg???

Hi Dawn,
I will keep my fingers crossed about your pregncacy!
As for me, the doctors are saying that there is still a chance. If two embryos implanted but only one is viable it could make the bHCG results not double for a time. I am currenly in limbo waiting for an early ultrasound(ug)

Laura,

How far along are you? We are going back tomorrow because I have had some discomfort to get checked. I am not sure if they are doing just bloodwork or an ultrasound too, but I am sure we won't see much. I am just hoping if the do bloodwork the levels will rise good. Thanks for the reply.

Hi Dawm,
I am 31 days post day 3 transfer. I am having my ultrasound next week at 38 days post transfer. I am not sure what they will be looking for. It is to early to see a heart(6-7weeks). How about you? good luck!
