Hi there, I got a faint positive on Sunday and have retested each day since but the lines don’t seem to be getting any darker and I’m worrying Confused

So tests are from Sunday morn, Sunday aft, Monday morn and Monday aft and then this morning. AF is due either today or Thursday (cycles vary 26-28 days). I did do a FRER and got a line but I’m saving my next FRER for Friday when AF is hopefully actually late.

What does everyone think? Definitely already have my hopes up but I’m really worrying about poss of chemical preg. Thanks in advance xx

This is a pic with no flash on - not sure if it makes it better or worse!

Hey, I would only compare them every 2 days really and on those cheapies they take ages to go dark. So just compare Sunday am to today am and scrap the other ones!
Good luck! Xx

Please don't take the colour of the line as an indication.
There is a line which shows it had detected HCG, deepening of the colour means very little especially when you're not actually late for your AF so massively early days.

Thanks so much @Smilingdonkey and @Blueuggboots, I’m going to try and not think about it until Friday! You spend all that time wishing for a positive and then you get one and there’s something else to worry about! Xx

They look like they are getting darker to me @Stapleton10

I thought the same this week with my tests but suddenly, once I've got past when my period was due the lines look considerably darker, so I'm feeling more hopeful now. Fingers crossed for you xx

I've just found out I am 5 weeks pregnant and used these tests, the line wasn't getting any darker however I tested positive with a clearblue digital yesterday and had it confirmed by the gp today 😊
