Not sure if my plant really is an Hawaiian Baby Woodrose (Argyreia nervosa)

Hello Shroomery!
So I bought some seeds on Ebay (noob mistake), and it sure is a fine plant. When I look at many other HBW it looks like the leaves should be a little smaller and thicker, and i thought this is the best place to ask for help
Here's my baby:
Two months old (June):



I had to chop it down a little because of infestation of mites, and out of personal curiosity I grafted a Heavenly Blue morning glory on it, which turned out to be a success

Today:


 (The pod in the background is from the Heavenly Blue)

I was slow to move it to the lit room, while handling some more mites, so it's looking pretty down right now, but is recovering! The heavenly blue got damaged really bad though.
Can anyone confirm if this is or is not an Argyreia nervosa?

Thanks! Good to know for sure 
And yeah she's not looking too good right now, but she's on the road to recovery  It's a really fun plant to cultivate, it grows so fast!

The HBW is still growing like a weed, but the few hours of sun have really been bad for the MG, not sure if it'll make it
