Ok so help me here ladies these are my numbers etc.
17th Jan BFP & Beta of 3. (going by scan today this put me at only 2w 5d)
19th Jan beta was 26. (going by scan 3w)
23rd Jan beta 195 (going by scan 3w 4 d)

Had another beta today will update this afternoon. Scan today put me at 4w 1d.
LMP 21st December.

So initially the dr said my numbers were too low (prior to the scan today) but after googling it seems my numbers are actually very high???

Confusing much!!!????

I am totally confused! I hope your betas are good. FX!

Maybe the dating scan is a little off?

Hopefully you have a nice beta rise :)

That is what confuses me?

TTC5 how long was your LMP? I am finding it hard to get my head around it, but i think you would have O'd around the 5th, then got your BFP at 12DPO (17th Jan) so implantation occured anywhere from the 6th to the 16th, so lets say it was the 6th, then the measurement should be 3 weeks, which it is out obviously, so if we throw on 2 more weeks from LMP the measurement should be 5 weeks but that is out too, your measurement is in the middle of them both so i dont know, maybe it is a tad bigger or smaller than the average at the moment.

I didn't ovulate till January, LMP was 21st December.

This reply was for Cinss, sorry to confuse! I think she has deleted her post though.

The only other explination i can come up with is that you O'd super early on the 29th (CD9?) and implanted right away, then got your BFP on 19DPO (hmm not very likely), but then you would measure exactly 4w1d.

I would think that when they said 4w1d they were referring to measurements according to assumed LMP.

I didn't think they did measurements according to conception age?

She did ask when my LMP was and I told her 21 Dec which should put me at 5w 2 day but when she measured on ultrasound the screen showed up 4w 1d.
