Beta's not quite doubling :( any hope?

mrsmeggraham · October 2017

Just looking for reassurance, or someone who has been in a similar situation. I had my first betas drawn 16dpo and they were 101. 47 hours later they had risen to 170. So going up but not quite doubling. My midwife said that there was really nothing we could do except do an ultrasound in two weeks. So now I have to wait. Has anyone experienced slow rising betas. Please feel free to share your good or bad experiences, I'm trying to prepare myself for the end of this week. Sad. Scared. Nervous. Hopeful. Thanks ladies!!!

There is still hope. You have three days to double, not just two. https://www.babymed.com/pregnancy/beta-hcg-blood-levels-and-ectopic-pregnancy

How many hours were in between your betas? They should double in 48-72 hours.
What day was your last draw?
I have fertility issues so we do 3 blood draws. This last time we did 48 hours in between and then 72 hours due to scheduling. My RE tracked the numbers according to the 48-72 hour timeline.

I was told by an OB that they look for 53% increase in 48 hours, which you have. Try to relax and good luck!
