Low betas mean diddly!!! (pg ment)
I just wanted to give you a girls an update and tell you that low betas mean absolutely SQUAT!!! My betas were 218 at 17dpo and 835 at 20dpo. Sounds like a healthy singleton, huh? WRONG!!!
Our first official u/s was today and when those betas were drawn, I was pregnant with TRIPLETS!!!! Now, the third baby has stopped growing (I'm guessing around 6w because of the size, but there was a yolk sac and fetal pole.....just no heartbeat). The identical twins are doing great, though. Measuring perfectly with wonderful heartbeats.
Just wanted to share!!! Here are the babes I've affectionately named Thing 1 and Thing 2.

No the pic only shows the identical twins. You'll see a very small black sac under the twins (it's in a different plane in order to get both babies in the pic)....that was the 3rd baby.
