Thinking of you today and hoping you get some good betas back ASAP!

I just got a call back from my GP . Betas were only 18 at 13 dpo (saturday.) I'm doing more betas today, thursday, and next Monday, but...
18 is seems really low, especially when you know your O date I've already looked at betabase.
For what it's worth, this is what my tests look like today.

@DesertDreams88: My doctor wants them at 50 by 14dpo. That could have totally happened with your numbers. But I do understand your anxiety and I would be nervous too. That's why I didn't have betas done until 14dpo this time because I didn't want to be stressed wondering if it was low because it was early or low because it was a chemical. So I figured I would just wait and see what they were at 14dpo.
(My first chemical my beta was 20 at 13dpo and 22 at 15dpo. My second loss was 40 at 14 dpo and 52 at 16 dpo.)

If it makes you feel better, my RE doesn't do betas until 15 DPO. They'd never have me in at 12 or 13. My first pregnancy was a chemical and I think I had my beta on 17DPO, and it was 5. Two days later it was 0. Your tests are getting darker, so that's a good sign. And HCG of 18 on day 12 is completely normal. You may not have implanted until the day before. It takes time for the HCG to build up in your system.

Oh my gosh! the nurse called this morning and I am SO relieved!! My numbers went from 18 to 80 in just 2 days. The 80 was from either 14 dpo or 15 dpo, so my levels are now right where they are supposed to be, yay! More bloodwork on Thursday and next Monday. Thank you for all your support and personal stories, they encouraged me last night!
