I can really feel how worried you are, and it's natural to feel scared when your doctor mentions the numbers aren't climbing as fast as they'd like. But honestly, HCG can be tricky to interpret on its own, and there's quite a bit of variation that's still okay, so please don't spiral before you see your gyne tomorrow. She'll have the full picture and can do a scan to check what's actually happening, which matters so much more than the percentage alone. Try to rest tonight and get through to tomorrow when you'll have proper answers. You're doing the right thing by keeping that appointment.

I’d try not to panic yet 🤍 A 57% rise in 48 hours isn’t textbook “doubling,” but it’s still an increase and can be within a normal range early on. HCG trends can vary a lot between pregnancies. Your doc will likely repeat bloods and/or do a scan to get a clearer picture. Many mums have had slower rises and still gone on to have healthy pregnancies. Take it one step at a time. tomorrow’s appointment will give you more answers. Sending you calm vibes 💛
