Hi, all!
It's my first pregnancy, I am 24 yo. I have been on BC for the last 3 years, and now we decided to have a baby. I got a positive test last Thursday, and it wasn't that dark, I immediately had HCG blood test - result was 29,23. To add on top of it, it is my first cycle after ending BC, and I don't know the exact ovulation date, but based on my feelings, it was 31 Dec - 1 Jan. So the first HCG was on 14-15 DPO.
After it, I had another test the next day (Friday, 16 Jan) - it was 58. And the other one this Monday, 19 Jan - result 127. I was worried that the results are still low for that date post ovulation. So I also decided to go to a doctor, whom I visited yesterday. I had a transvaginal ultrasound, and the other doctor said that he doesn't see much (no embryo), though there were vacuoles, which could also indicate early pregnancy. My doctor said, based on this ultrasound, that it might be an early pregnancy, but HCG is low, so I need to redo it tomorrow and then in 2 days.
And already update I had a new results from today - HCG 217, repeating on Friday.

Please share if you had such situations and how they all ended. And if I might be really pregnant,

P.S I have some symptoms: grown boobs, I feel some tiredness and sleep longer, also I am too emotional, and I have pulling pain in the lower abdomen.

It’s doubling up every day - you might just have lower hormone results.

I had a VU at 5 weeks and they couldn’t find a viable pregnancy but told me that wasn’t unusual. They rescanned me a week later and they found it.

It's not that it's doubling every day, rather every 48 h or so
