HCG not quite doubling?

[mrshyer]

Hello!

Today I am 4 weeks 5 days pregnant after fertility treatments.

Monday I went in for my first HCG testing and it came out to be 207. Today (Wednesday) I went in and it was only 336. The nurse said it is lower than they would like.

Of course, I'm a nervous wreck.

Is this normal? Anyone else experience it?

I've been struggling with low HCG, rather than slow rising, but I've therefore been reading a ton about HCG levels - although they prefer it to double every two to three days, as long as it rises by at least 33% every two days, you're still probably viable. So by that benchmark you're still ok. Are they going to test you again?

Oh good! Yes. Friday

The waiting is the absolute worst.

I agree, it's the worst! Fingers crossed for you xx
