Well first Beta was 36 and 2nd beta today was 74.  The dr. said yes it did double but still on the LOW end and it just doubled.....I am sooo worried about this! 

I am 18 days past ovulation....as far as I know...I had an IUI so that is what we are going off of since I had the ovidrel shot to make me ovulate.....anyone just double and make it successfully?  I am sooo scared....My first pregnancy but this time I was in the 1,000's

its the part that doubles is what is important. try not to worry. my first one was 17!

That doesn't sound all that bad. The rate of increase is really all that matters, not the number itself.

yes, it's the doubling time.  my beta on Tues was 48.2, today it is 97.2.  it feels low, but it is doubling and that's all that matters.  are you going back for a 3rd beta?  ( i am on Monday and will be praying for both of us for sticky babies!)

My 2nd beta didn't quite double, but my third one did. Your beta should double in a 48-72 hour span. Do you have another beta?

My doubling times weren't that great and at one point I was told "It doesn't look good".  I'm 13 weeks today and the LO was kicking away during the u/s yesterday.

Don't count yourself out yet.

When was your first beta?  It can take 36-72 hrs for betas to double, so as long as you're in that range, I'd say your betas are fine!

I go back on Monday for Beta number 3 so now I just wait.....
