    i didnt use ivf but yes i had low hcg at first bt. 12dpo it was 19. was told it was probably not a viable pregnancy and given the amount of pain i was in they thought it was ectopic. however all was well. the second bt came back low too at 341 a couple of weeks later but the third came back super high over 7000 about a week after the second bt. so yes been in the same situation. its early days yet so try not to stress too much it could just be that its so early

    Hun, congrats on your pg and I wouldn't worry just yet. A GF of mine had fairly low numbers from memory and had a healthy pg. Just a bit slow to begin with! GL hun and I've got everything crossed for you

    congrats on your pregnancy. I didn't do IVF but I had a mean nurse give me my results over the phone. I was about 4 weeks (so may 15DPO or close to) and hadn't told my DH as i wanted the BT results to confirm it for me first and the nurse said my HCG level was 66. And I asked am I pregnant can I tell my DH and she said 'Its low, I wouldnt.' But up hers because I have a beautiful baby boy now

    Are you going in for another BT to test your HCG amount in a couple of days?? After my 66 they made me take another BT 2-3 days later and it had doubled like it was supposed to so once you see it growing like that you do start to feel much more relaxed and confident. GL!!

    Hey Mel.. I looked at the avatar and thought how familiar it looked.. I should have known.. I hope you are well and great to hear from you..

    KittyK - Great story.. I'm so glad things worked out for you.. It's awful when the nurses aren't helpful.. I am really lucky with the nurses at my clinic.. I think the lady who rang me to tell me my levels were low was more upset than I was..

    Thanks MissB for your story too.. They all help to ease the anxiety..

    On that note though we do have spotting this morning (well maybe a little heavier than spotting) but just trying to stay positive and hold on until tomorrow..

    Thanks everyone.. i had forgotten just how wonderful the BB community is..

    Cheers
