HCG levels did the double. Scared!!!

Monday my hcg level was 11,000 today my hcg was 12,800. My doctor said they like to see the levels double but that a rise was still good. I'm terrified I'm going to miscarry or that something is wrong with my baby because my levels aren't rising like they should.

Has anyone else had this happen?
What happened with your pregnancy?

I'm so scared. They're saying I'm somewhere between 4-5 weeks. I go in December 15th for a repeat ultrasound. (They didn't see anything on Mondays because I wasn't far enough along. We were thinking I was 7 weeks)

We all need a baby dust fairy to sprinkle it around. A sprinkle here. A sprinkle there. SPRINKLES EVERYWHERE. *****BABY DUST*****

HCG above 6000 takes over 96 hours to double. So it's not surprising that it didn't double in 48 hours. Keep your chin up, the hcg is going up, not down and the best thing to do, is wait for your u/s (although I know it must be hard to wait).

Good luck
