Your levels should double every 48 hours, however, not everyone does do that and there is a perfectly healthy baby. My HCG level was doubling pretty regularly at the beginning.. It was 280 0n 5/6/13 and then 718 on 5/8/13 and then was 2090 on 5/10/13. I had my first u/s on 5/10/13 as well due to bad pain and all they saw was a sac. 5/15/13 my level was only 6800 and on 5/17/13, they were 11, 589. I also had another u/s on 5/20/13 and the baby had a beating heart that we saw. So I wouldn't worry too much with the HCG level as long as it's rising!

Actually, HCG levels under 1,200 should double within 48-72 hours. You have a doubling rate of about 26 hours between the first 2 tests and 30 hours between the last 2 tests. That's not slowly, that's fast.

After you hit the 1,200 mark (which should be any moment), the doubling rate is expected to slow to between 72-96 hours.

Fast doubling times could indicate multiples, but it could also just mean you have a really healthy bean in there. good luck!

thank you everyone i went to the dr today and they think my due date is wrong thinking that i will be due the 1st week of feb. not the end of jan. not off by much but they did a trans vaginal u/s and they couldnt even see a sac so i would be like 3.5 weeks or so not 5 weeks but its hard to kno till we can get a good u/s being on birth control made it hard to tell when i would have even ovulated... i go back next wed. for hcg levels again and then my 1st ob will be june 24th so i think i will ask for another u/s then to see
