I’m between 5-6 weeks pregnant (LMP 1/11/19 but unknown ovulation date) and was curious if the rise in my HCG draws look promising...Google is overwhelming me! So nervous about having another miscarriage.
2/7/19 271
2/11/19 2124
2/21/19 23,461
I could use some encouragement!
Thanks!

Have you checked otut betabase.com? You can put in some basic info and they will tell you what your doubling rates are, where they fall in terms of average, above or below average.
It’s very useful. It’s all user-generated data.

Your doubling time for the first two numbers is 32hrs. They look for a doubling time that is between 48-72 hours so yours is faster.
I am not trying to spook you but my first doubling time for my twins was 36hrs. I asked the nurse if that was kind of high and she brushed off my question. We only saw one heartbeat at my 6w scan. There was another blob but my RE said she thought it was the yolk sac. Then at the 8w scan there were two babies.
ETA: Those babies turned into a healthy pregnancy and they are now 7mo and doing great. I had a prior history of three miscarriages and one live birth (their big brother).

@ElbieKay: haha don't scare her 
@Stardust17: my doubling time for both of my successful (singleton) pregnancies between weeks 5-6 was 38 hours. my early miscarriage was like 68, for comparison. sounds great so far!

If you can, dig up my post about my HCG question! I think it will make you feel a lot better! After 10,000 HCG will not double every 48. After 6w it's not even considered a reliable predictor of successful pregnancy . 23k is amazing!!
