Anybody have a successful pregnancy with low but rising betas? Pls respond I’m desperate

Hi everyone. I’m currently 6w3d roughly and feeling really anxious about my pregnancy progression. We’ve been TTC for 3 years and had two miscarriages back to back about 9/10 months ago so if you can imagine anxiety is high. I’ve been worried about the numbers themselves seeming low for how far along I am and now about the rise slowing down. My doubling time seems to be somewhere around 91 hours now. I’ve also had intermittent light spotting. Mostly pink/light brown, not heavy, and it comes and goes. No severe cramping or heavy bleeding. I know hCG slows down at higher numbers, but I keep seeing people talk about 48-72 hour doubling and much higher beta numbers at 6 weeks, so I’m spiraling a bit wondering if I’m measuring drastically behind or headed toward a blighted ovum/miscarriage. My ultrasound is coming up on Wednesday and the waiting has been really hard mentally. Betas are as follows

16 dpo: 26
18 dpo: 57
20 dpo: 179
23 dpo: 745
27 dpo: 2320
30 dpo: 3993

5w1d & 5w3d pink discharge

TLDR.
Ugh I know I’m asking a question that’s probably been asked a million times. Has anyone had very light pink spotting around 5 weeks and everything turned out okay?
I had a tiny bit of light pink spotting when wiping at 5w1d and then again today at 5w3d. It’s only been when wiping, not enough to get on a liner or underwear, and I also noticed a tiny bit of brown in between. Along with it, I’ve had very mild dull cramping, nothing severe at all. I’ve had 2 previous losses, so I’m honestly super paranoid. The thing freaking me out the most is that light pink spotting is also how one of my miscarriages started, so now every time I see any color at all I spiral. My hCG started low and at first an has been rising great so far but I’m still paranoid from how this started. I’m just looking to hear from anyone who had spotting like this around the same time and went on to have a normal pregnancy/healthy baby. Trying not to lose my mind before my first ultrasound 😅

Late positive & low hcg

Looking for some nuggets of hope or even just a dose of reality! Came home from vacation on 16 dpo and got a little more than a faint positive. It’s been three months since my husbands varicocele surgery so it’s crazy timing. I’ve had two very early losses so I called to see if my doctor could order betas for me. My first test at 16 dpo was 26 & two days later it was 57 so more than double. I go back Monday for another beta but my anxiety is tearing me apart. Has anybody had successful pregnancies starting off with low betas or late implantation??

Hi! I’m 15 dpo today. Just got home from vacation and tested as I’ve typically started by now. I’ve had a miscarriage and a chemical in the past so I’m very skeptical. Praying there’s some success stories out there with tests this light.

Just got home from a five day vacation on cycle day 32, 15 DPO. Don’t have more tests at home but this one looks lighter than I feel like it should be. I’ve experienced miscarriages and chemical pregnancies. Any success stories with lines like this at 15 dpo?
