So I had a miscarriage in August and haven’t had a period since but I have been ovulating.

I got my first positive on 31/10 which is about 12dpo. However the lines since 13dpo haven’t gotten any darker in fact seem to have gotten lighter. I’m so worried I’m going to have another miscarriage. Does anyone have any positive stories or any suggestions.

Weirdly my 13dpo wee wasn’t my first wee of the day it was middle of the day and the 14 and 15th are first wees.

Your husband is absolutely right. You're getting positive tests, you're not bleeding and the sore boobs and cramps are good signs of pregnancy. You're not out yet, fingers crossed everything goes perfectly 🤞

@June1987 hey I suffered a 5 week miscarriage only last month it's utterly rubbish. I hope your lines get darker and also I did find my lines were darker with afternoon urine as opposed to FMU. Xx

Thank you everyone. I’m trying to stay calm and just got to wait and see what happens.

Again thanks for all your comments.

Hi, just wanted to do a bit of an update. I phoned the doctor who was lovely but he doesn’t want to do bloods. He said a line is a line and I need to step away from the tests. He said he worked in obs and gyne and said some people’s test lines never get dark and as long as I don’t have any bleeding not to worry (easier said than done right)

So these are my tests from yesterday but I’m not going to test anymore as what will be will be. Thanks for all your positive messages. Hopefully this is a sticky but we will see. Good luck to all you lovely people trying to conceive x

@June1987 so happy for you hope all goes well, glad you said about the lines in the same at the moment xx

Meant to post my one from yesterday! So I’m happy enough with that and just see what happens.

@xblx put the tests down, trust me you will drive yourself insane. If you have a line your pregnant don’t worry about the darkness, just look after yourself and what will be will be. Good luck with everything and congratulations x

Hi there! Probably a long shot, I’ve seen your post was from a while back and would like an update if possible?
I’ve been searching for hours through google for an answer on the same thing. Im 4 weeks + 3 days pregnant and my lines are not getting dark on my pregnancy tests, just like yours. Feel super anxious as I’ve had two recent miscarriages.
How long did you wait to retest or until yours got darker?
hope everything worked out well for you 😊
