slow rising HCG but seems normal on ultrasound

I just had a sonogram today at 7w1d and the embryo looked good with a clearly visible heartbeat and some limb development. The overall size was normal and it was a big increase from the last ultrasound at 6w2d.

My HCG, however, has persistently doubled very slowly. Here are the numbers:

7/9/01 1232 7/12/01 2090 7/16/01 5097 7/20/01 7703 7/26/01 12,105

Everything I've ready says that HCG should double within 2-3 days and mine has not done so. Should I be concerned at this point, or should I relax and assume it's going to be ok? I've had two miscarriages already.

Thanks.
