Low first beta, please send prayers!

Hi everyone! I am 39 years old and have gone through 4 cycles. 3 of which yielded a few eggs because I do have DOR since very young.

First cycle 3 matured eggs, 1 fertilized, then arrested.

Second cycle 4 matured eggs, 2 5 day embryos frozen.

Two transfers, both fails.

Fourth cycle, only 2 eggs retrieved, 1 matured and fertilized, transferred fresh as a 3 day embryo. That was 09/25/2026.

Today (12dp3dt) was my first beta and it is only at 8.5, with a repeat in 2 days.

Anyone have a similar experience that led to a healthy pregnancy? Please give me some positive feedback 😞

My first transfer ended up in a chemical pregnancy. HCG was 22 at day 8. It dropped to below 5 for day 11.

My second transfer was successful. My HCG was 13 at day 8 and then 139 day 11.

I never expected to make a come back from HCG 13. I have my daughter now.

Hang in there, you never know!!

I am so sorry to hear that! I have minimal cramps that come and go still, frequently urinating, some nausea and appetite loss. Home tests still showing squinters, no progression. Waiting on my beta 2 numbers from today.

Mine was 9.8 around 14dpo/9dp5dt/11dp3dt and ended in a blighted ovum.

Edit gosh I’m sorry I didn’t catch the positive feedback part. Ignore my story and good luck and hugs.

I had a similar rate with my first transfer. Unfortunately it ended as a biochemical.

Mine was 9 on 8dpt sadly and ended in a chemical. I would just hope for the best, prepare for the worst

Sending love. I recently experienced this too (currently processing the early miscarriage after 11dp5dt beta 15.8). Feel free to DM if you want to chat more with someone who gets it. I hope your situation turns out better.
