10dp5dt low beta result

me: 33 low progesterone
DH: 36 mild varicocele

May 2009: chemical pregnancy
July 2009-May 2010: 3 iui's all resulted in BFN

IVF #1:
July 7th: ER (12 eggs fertilized, 8 embryos, 6 blastocysts)
July 12th: 3 blasts transferred
9dp5dt: -tive HPT
10dp5dt: BETA 5.8

My DH have been TTC for 2 years and started seeking fertility treatment a year ago.  This was my first IVF cycle.  3 blastocysts were transferred ( one Grade 4 8-cells blast, two 6-cells Grade 3+ blasts).  I just received my BETA result: 5.8!!!  The nurse told me to come back for another BETA in 3 days to see if it's doubled, but she didn't sound very optimistic.

My questions are: Has anyone else receive a low BETA, but continued to have a healthy pregnancy?  Is it possible that my low BETA could be a result of late implantation?  Or is this a chemical pregnancy?  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Babydust to everyone!

I'll be hoping for the best for you. (I've never gotten a beta over 1 :)  )  I read somewhere--I can't remember whether here on another board--that beta levels for IVF lag behind the norm.

Good luck with the next test!

10dp5dt is the same as 14dpo.  I've read a lot of posts from women whose BETA was anywhere from 7-31.  And they all resulted in a m/c.  I'm hoping for late implantation.  (:
