Low Beta, so scared of another m/c, help!

Ladies, I know you will all know the fear of another miscarriage. I am currently pregnant but BARELY. I had a beta yesterday and it was 7 points. The Dr says it should be fine. But I am so scared! Why is this happening again?????????????????????
We figured out how to get pregnant, figured out why my babies kept dying and now this LOW beta? No more dying babies! I am so pissed. Why me?

I am so grateful I am pregnant again, but so scared of more pain. I have to wait until THURSDAY for another beta, six days after the first? I feel like the Dr doesnt want to waste a beta in 3 days, so he is waiting the 6. I have heard of successful pregnancies starting out this low, but 7 at a possible 13 DPO? It is very possible I o'd later and implanted later. But why couldnt it have been int he 40's or 50's like my last two pregnancies?

Thanks for letting me spill out my heart.

He may not have implanted till 12dpo. So he is still fresh and just making the chemical to give you a positive. As long as you are not bleeding and cramping, I think you are fine. Just think positive.

I will be thinking of you....and a big congrats.

I agree. What's important here is not the actual beta (since you don't know when implantation happened). What's critical is your doubling time being within a good range. That's what will be monitored, and that's what counts.

Best wishes,
Shari

Wow!
Congratulations! I agree with the other posters, it's so soon. Please try to be patient untill your next beta. I know it's hard but, like Tracy said, until you are having bleeding or cramping you should be fine.

Please keep up to date!
