First response getting lighter...

[soph91]

Hello

I had a miscarriage in December and I am TTC again. I done a test yesterday morning which was a positive I would only be 3 weeks, I done another test this morning and it was a bit lighter so now I am getting worried ! I am away skiing with family at the moment so taking it super easy but worried I have done something ! I took them both with my FMU but the one yesterday I had wine with dinner whereas last night I drank lots of water so not sure if it was just a more diluted wee. The top picture is yesterday and the lower one today. Thanks X

The darkness of the lines means nothing.

For your own sanity you need to stop testing now. You are pregnant, no reason to believe otherwise for now.

As I'm sure you are aware from your miscarriage you still get a positive on tests even when you know you have misscarried, sometimes even for a few weeks after.

Congratulations

I wouldn't worry when the lines are pretty faint anyway as a tiny difference is going to look really obvious (and drinking a lot would definitely make a difference.) I'd also wait two days between testing as it takes 48-72 hours for HCG to double. These were mine two days apart if it helps to compare.

Thanks both , I will test again on Thursday morning . I'm just worried I have done something whilst skiing ! But don't want to not ski as don't want to tell family after my last miscarriage! I only have a couple of hours skiing left so will just do a couple of green runs. thanks so much X

When the baby is that small you can't hurt anything from skiiing. It'll be firmly nestled in your pelvis, just a bunch of cells. You can only really tell a difference between every other day tests as that's when you'd see the hormone levels double.

Skiing will be fine, don't worry about that xx

@soph91 have you had a cycle following your miscarriage.

I got positive tests following mine got 7/8 weeks.

My body was holding on to hcg.

Make an appointment with your gp for testing.
Sending good luck ❤️

Yes my miscarriage was early December , so had 2 cycles since then...And had lots of negative test in between . I've been testing and they have gotten darker now AF would have been due Friday . Just trying not to get my hopes up yet .So hard after a miscarriage! X

Fingers crossed for you
