Hi Adrienne, I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply to your question, and hope by now that your starter is rising well. Patience almost always pays off, especially when your starter is already showing some active rising. If you have an instant read thermometer, you might want to check the temperature of your starter at different times during the day and see if you can keep it in the 70-80ºF (21-26ºC) range. Cooler temperatures may be slowing things down. Let us know how it's going and if you need further assistance!
