  Hi emmaj2020 - I am in a very similar boat.  My 10 DPT beta was 12 and then two days later it was 20.  I am super concerned and had sincerely expected my levels to drop on the 12th day test.  I have another blood draw tomorrow.  From what I've read the doubling is a very reassuring sign.  Fingers crossed for you and lots of sticky baby dust.

  @emmaj2020 @elmela. what happened with you ladies Betas?  Im 10dp5dt and I took a home test and it was completely negative, not even a faint line.  They told me to wait till day 14, but of course I couldn't.  Did your numbers go up?  Are you ladies pregnant.  Just looking for a shred of hope.
