Help with hcg levels needed!

Hi ladies, I really need your Help!!

Today I had my bloods done, 11dp3dt and the clinic have just rang to tell me my hcg level is 48. I have to go back for repeat bloods in 48 hours.

I asked what they would expect at this stage and all I was told was that their guidance says that the hcg has to be 50 or over to confirm a positive pregnancy at this stage which is why I need a repeat.

I don't have a clue what to think or how I should be feeling?

Does anyone have any advice? Is this an ok level at this stage and could my embryo just be a little slow growing?

Any help is appreciated! I'm going a little crazy here! I thought my wait was over today either way but now I have another 48 whole hours to wait!!

Hcg levels vary widely women to women the main thing in a viable pregnancy is for the levels to at least double in 48/72 hours good luck hope it all works out for you x

Thank you so much xxx

I am not sure how to paste a pic but this should help. Would suggest you are pregnant and now they just want to see your numbers double:
