Worried about lack of line progression

I’ve previously had one miscarriage and one ectopic so I’m very anxious right now.
A bit concerned my lines aren’t progressing as they should be 🙁.

This was my 7th IVF round (first using DE) and thought I had a much higher chance but not sure now.

HCG was only 63 on 11dp5dt, had another today but have a very anxious wait until Monday for the result.

Any opinions? Good or bad, just want to prepare…

The lines are progressing and a line is a line, you are pregnant. Try to stop testing and wait for your beta results on Monday as the constant testing will just increase your anxiety. Good luck 🤞🏻

Fellow ivf pregnancy here. I had a scare with a line being fainter but then it gone back to dark. Looking at your lines, they are definitely there so I don’t think there is a reason to worry and they look pretty good to me. I read somewhere as well and I think my ivf midwives told me that the line strength is not a reliable indicator of anything as it depends on the concentration of your urine. You can see my concentrations (top was the very first test and then more later ones subsequently with latest last). I was incredibly obsessed with the third one - but store bought tests are not as good as the ones that clinic gave me and you can perfectly see it. I did worry about it a lot too though, and I am now 29 weeks pregnant. With a whole new set of more intense worry though!

not to mention that in my first response test the indicator was the wrong way around! Control line first and the test line second so don’t rely on first response that much!

Your lines seem to be progressing just fine OP. Mine was weaker than yours at 14dpo, currently 11 weeks and just saw LO on the scan. Good luck with your Monday test result x

What was the outcome? My tests are exact as yours
