I'm really sorry it didn't double! I'm so glad it went up. We always hear about double in 48 hours but really it is 48-72 hours and everyone is different. But I know from experience how long that next 48 hours is when you didn't have doubling in the first 48. I will be sending lots of love your way.

Today's beta update, it's rising but definitely not doubling I've pretty much gone from 57 to 82 to now 93.
I'm back there on Monday for another beta but this is pretty stressful. I don't really understand impact of not doubling - I know it's supposed to double, but if it's not, does that definitely mean that a pregnancy is not viable? I think I'll just stop by my clinic tomorrow and talk to one of the doctors.
I'm so sorry I think you're right, typically a non doubling beta is a sign it's s non-viable pregnancy. I hope you can get in and speak with your doctor soon. I'm sorry! Sending positive energy your way.

I called back yesterday and met with the doc today.
My doc thinks that it looks and sounds like an ectopic pregnancy. I'll be there tomorrow for an ultrasound but they aren't sure what they'll be able to see. They are thinking that, although early, hopefully they will see something. Otherwise it will be regular betas and ultrasounds until something happens.
I'll keep you all posted. Thanks for being so awesome and supportive!!!
I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm glad your Dr. is doing an ultrasound just in case it is ectopic but I REALLY hope it's just a slow rising beta and things will catch up soon. Why can't things go smoothly after all some of us have gone through to get here. Sending a big hug your way.
Hope the u/s goes OK today. If it is ectopic, its good they are monitoring you early. Sending lots of positive energy your way. I know how exhausting the limbo can be and I hope you get some answers soon. *hugs*
