very low beta 9dp5dt

Hi,

I got my bHCG back today and it's 12 :(

I obviously realise it's very low.

I was expecting clinic to tell me to stop meds and prepare for miscarriage.

Annoyingly they've said carry on with the meds and recheck beta on Monday morning.

I know where this is heading - so why are they prolonging the pain??

Hi lovely, sending you the biggest hugs right now and a ton of strength. Yes it’s a low number but you just never know if it actually implanted late or if it might be viable. Hold onto that little bit of hope, just incase, over this weekend. I’ve been there I know it’s hard when you feel like you know the outcome already. Don’t torture yourself doing tests and try to just do some nice things to distract yourself as much as possible. Good luck lovely I’m wishing you all the best 🍀Xx

thank you for your response - but I am really finding it hard to battle the negative thoughts and also I am trying to be a realist too. It will be a miracle if it sticks.

I’m so sorry it wasn’t better news for you today but there is still a little glimmer of hope and that’s why your clinic have asked you to stay on your medication.

I had a low beta with my current pregnancy and when I posted about it, lots of lovely ladies came and told me their stories so it is possible that it’s just a late implanter. 9dp5dt is still early. Try and hold onto a little bit of hope, stay on your meds and see what Monday’s test brings xxx

I'm sorry hon - as my Dr said to me when we went through something similar, we're talking about a life here and we have to make absolutely sure, even if it seems hopeless. Sending big hugs xxx

So sorry to hear… try and distract yourself as much as you can and while it is ok to try and prepare yourself for the worst, remember there are always exceptions. My clinic doesn’t check until 11dpt so you really might be ok. Sending positive vibes!!!

Thank you. I have searched the internet for success stories but there are really none. It just feels cruel to make me have to continue progesterone whilst waiting for the inevitable

I am so sorry and biggest hugs. This epically sucks. I want you to have some hope but I also want you to prepare yourself mentally for what may occur. With my first chemical pregnancy my HCG 9dp5dt was 12. I needed to stay on the progesterone and go back in two days for another blood test. It sucked. I kept looking for hope but I knew that it was unlikely so wasn't surprised when they told me to stop my progesterone after the next blood test. I sincerely hope that my experience isn't yours. The only silver lining is that my FS was happy and therefore I was excited too...that implantation can take place. Getting pregnant even with a chemical means your odds of IVF working for you go way up according to my clinic. I hung onto that and did fall pregnant and am currently 27 weeks. No matter what happens...please don't give up. There is always hope.

Aw I'm so sorry to hear this. Hang in there best you can. As I've just had a miscarriage I now look back over all the worrying googling I did and I've just realised no matter what we do the outcome will be the outcome so try to live for the moment. Whatever you do or don't do now what will be will be. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and sending hugs take it easy on yourself xx

Really sorry that you are in this position. We have had quite a few chemicals too so totally understand that horrible limbo feeling while you wait for the outcome. We have also been spotting since our bfp last week so concerned it could be another chemical. Just trying to keep myself distracted but not really succeeding! Wishing you the best of luck over the coming days lovely xx
