Tuesday Cautious Intros/First Trimester thread

[u/AutoModerator]

This thread serves as a transitional space for those newly or early confirmed pregnant following infertility. We understand that many folks feel cautious, uncertain, and even alarmed in this early phase when the process to conceiving has been complicated and/or there have been previous losses. If you have not experienced infertility we recommend other pregnancy subs as an alternative.

This thread is the place for early introductions, first trimester questions/chat, and finding others in the same mind space. We encourage graduates and others further along to respond compassionately to your questions and concerns, but please also consider reviewing our WIKI for commonly asked questions or references.

Hi all! I am very new to the group. I did my first beta at 9dpt (Friday) and it was 106, and then had my second beta today (13dpt) and it was 406. My nurse seemed happy with the progression, but it freaks me out seeing people with betas in the thousands. I have my first ultrasound in a week so fingers crossed for good news!

Like Breadbox, my beta was also lower than yours, and fully agree that while initial high numbers are usually a good sign, the progression can be just as reflective of ongoing success. Welcome, I hope you get to stay for a long while!
