.Hi. I am 6 wks pregnant. Initial beta at 15 dpo was 50. We had a slow start on hcg rising and now my hcg is tripling and is dpo 21 1450. Due for another hcg tommorrow. Just curious because now I am potentially in twin hcg range. Do twin pregnancies start as low as 50 hcg and rise? What if there was late implatation? Thanks.

.Everyone's HCG levels are not going to be the same. i don't think that what your first HCG test showed will tell whether or not you are having twins. The fact that your levels are tripling instead of the common doubling is a good sign!!! =) When I was 5 weeks pg, an ER Dr told me that my levels showed a 10 week pg. when I talked with my OB two days later she said that everyone's levels are different. So we don't know what that ER Dr. was talking about, because in fact i was only 5 weeks along. So good luck and let us know about the baby/babies! =)
