Faint line slowly getting darker

My period was due on Monday, I have tested every day since the lines are getting darker I think. Is this a good sign or not, I have already had two miscarriages and I am flying to turkey for a two week holiday on Friday, so I am totally flipping out! Any body else had the same thing?

Thank you in my last two pregnancies it was a really dark line from the very beginning. I lost both! So I am trying to stay positive hoping the fact that this one is different is a good thing xx

Hey @ellie140979 generally the lines should continue to darken as you get more pregnant. Be warned though that the tests can only go so dark so they wont always increase even if hcg does! Once they are as dark as they can be, they will just stay the same.
