Low beta hcg but doubling?

So I just got my second beta results:

11dp5dt- 21.2

13dp5dt - 49.8

It has doubled but still extremely low. Also having brown spotting the last 24 hours. Does this seem like it will be viable? Please be honest, I’m prepared for the worst. Had a chemical before and beta never doubled like this, stayed at 30 then dropped. My tests still look like they’re progressing but I know the blood is more accurate. Third beta is in 2 days.

Hi again. Mine was 32, then 61 two days later then they jumped to 385 three or four days after that. I sobbed down the phone at the IVF nurse when the third result came in. I felt like my heart was being broken in slow motion over those days. It is HARD.

Try to focus on the doubling. I know how difficult it can be scrolling for others’ experiences and googling hcg ranges. There will be success stories and stories of loss. Your journey is your own and you’re still in the game. Sending you strong, positive and sticky thoughts x

I really dont know to be honest but the tests seem like they are getting darker. The number did double so just think positive till they say other wise

Heya! Your line progression looks great. I had low initial betas but they kept doubling appropriately and now I’m 7 weeks 2 days.. still not out of the woods but there was a good heartbeat on viability scan so def not a chemical! I had bleeding and cramping too - was convinced it was the beginning of a miscarriage but it must’ve been implantation bleeding, in retrospect.

Good that you’re getting another beta relatively soon - I found the monitoring helpful even though the whole situation is inherently v stressful, confusing and draining. Hang in there!!
