FRER progression - worried please help

I got a strong positive at 11dpo and took another test today at 13dpo because my sore boobs have vanished. The top test is today's and the bottom one is two days ago. HCG should have doubled in that time and the line is not as dark. I'm very worried I've only had losses but had never had a positive this strong before. Be brutally honest does this look bad to you?

Both tests are from the same pack.

I think that, as FRERs are super sensitive, once your HCG gets to a certain point then it’ll struggle to show progression.

If you do feel the need to POAS then try the clearblue digital week’s indicator ones xx

Thank you. I'm only 12dpo so didn't think it's early enough for the progression to stop though?

The control line is darker in the pic where the test line is darker, if you compare the lines on each test to each other rather than the tests lines on different tests. Also, even if they were both done using fmu there's nothing to say that your wee wasn't slightly more diluted one day to the next. Try not to worry and maybe do a digital test with conception indicator if it'll put your mind at rest a bit xx

The older one might have got darker because it’s a couple days old as well, as that seems happen on the tests I’ve used. It still looks like a strong positive to me.

Thank you the first one I did was strange because I've never had one that dark so early it was actually worrying me because it was that dark after 20 mins, I've checked the pic on my phone! I'm hoping the first one was an anomaly and had a weirdly high amount of dye in it because I didn't think you could get such a strong positive that early. Hopefully I'll get some blood tests done next week.
