Frer progression

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone could give me an opinion (or kick up the ass). This is my 6th pregnancy, I have one living DD (1st pg).
My last Mc was on NYE. I got another BFP at 10dpo this week. I have been tracking the line with frer. Today is 13dpo and I don’t think the line has progressed. Absolutely terrified I’m going to Mc again. I am taking 5mg folic acid, cyclogest pessaries, but D 10,000, hopefully starting clexane injections today.
Has anyone had slow line progression and it work out?
TIA

Those lines look fab, HCG will only double every 48-72 hours so your results from day 10 and 12 look lovely. Here are mine, you can see initially there is a big jump but the last couple are harder to differentiate. Wait until AF due then try a less sensitive test like clear blue digital. Good luck with your 🌈

Stop testing!!!! These tests are not a predictor of miscarriage! You might get great progression and miscarry or less good progression and the pregnancy be absolutely fine. I don't think it's helpful for your anxiety to keep testing so honestly just stop. You are pregnant- congratulations 🎉. No-one (and particularly not shop bought pregnancy tests) can predict the future for you! Xxx

@Haiyaa thank you. I really really hope this is my rainbow but I just cannot push the doubt out of my mind!

@pigglepot I know you are 100% right. It’s not doing me any good because I’m never happy with what appears. I had myself convinced it was a chemical between 10dpo and 11dpo. It’s just I have been through everything possible with baby loss that the fear takes over me!

@CherryO88 I know how you feel- I've been there too! But you have to find ways to protect your mental health and try not to feed anxiety by obsessing. You can't control the outcome of this pregnancy even though I know you desperately want to. Just step away from the tests and take each day at a time. Xx

Me again. I had to stop testing for a few days as my anxiety was through the roof. Ordered more tests intending to test tomorrow morning, but when I got home I couldn’t resist. This is 17dpo with afternoon urine. I had been drinking dilute in work but I wouldn’t say I was super hydrated. I know the line has progressed but should it not be as darker or darker than the control at this point?! Has anyone had a lighter line at 17dpo and gone on to have a successful pregnancy? TIA

Op that line is fine for 17dpo please try and stop testing 😁

CherryO88 · 31/03/2021 21:46

I know I know! I have one more test left. It’s just when I look online most have a line at least as dark as the control by now and there are a lot of scary stories of lighter lines ending in Mc. Just desperately want this pregnancy to work out, a stillbirth and 3 consecutive losses after, my heart can’t take much more!

Just think - people will only update the worst case scenarios. I’m sure many people who go on to have healthy pregnancies have just not bothered to update.

Fingers crossed and sending good vibes 💕
