Given a genus 2 curve C defined over a finite field Fq of odd characteristic such that 2|#Jac(C)(Fq), we study the growth of the 2-adic valuation of the cardinality of the Jacobian over a tower of quadratic extensions of Fq. In the cases of simpler regularity, we determine the exponents of the 2-Sylow subgroup of Jac(C)(Fq2k).
