High Betas
Is having a high beta, good, bad or either?
Nurse said my levels are on the high side...today at 15dpo they were 579. They are bring me in earlier than normal for my first sono. Anyone else have have higher levels? I also got a positive pregnancy test at 8dpo..so maybe that also has something to do with it.

Re: High Betas
My midwife told me mine were "high" for this pregnancy but that they were still normal. I was having them tracked because I'd had some bleeding and the midwife was only worried because she thought there might be twins.
Sono showed everything they needed to see -- and only one sac/hb.

Re: High Betas
At 15 dpo mine was 721. I Googled it and freaked out that I was having quadruplets. 
Everything was fine and I had a very healthy baby girl.

Re: High Betas
I have heard the number really means almost nothing because it depends on what DPO/time of the day blood was taken, hydration status etc. The only thing that matters if that the numbers are increasing at the appropriate rate.
