Low HCG...should I be worried?

Hello!
I got my HCG tested at 4 weeks (Friday) amd it was 34. Two days later (today) it came back as 80. I know this is within the range on the chart but it just seems so low. What does everyone think? Anyone else have low numbers but have a successful pregnancy?
Backstory I had a chemical in November at 5w5d and my HCG was 112 (tested at ER) and doc said they would like to see it much much higher then at 6 weeks.

    It more than doubled. That’s what matters.

    I hit post reply too soon. I mean, it could be low for 4 weeks or it could be on track. HCG levels can vary a lot, but they also can indicate maybe you ovulated later than you initially thought. What matters with HCG levels is that they’re doubling appropriately.

    Do you have confirmation of ovulation date? My guess is you ovulated later. It wouldn’t also hurt if you wanted more labs drawn for a piece of mind.
