Like progression, is it dark enough at 16dpo?

After 2 previous losses, one MMC and one CP I’ve become a serial tester in hope that I’ll see the lines progress. I see progression but thought the lines would have been darker by now?
Is this progression slow, or am I worrying too much?

@Martinesatx 16DPO is still quite early really.. lines look really good to me :)

Thank you.
I agree, it is still quite early. I guess I’m just worrying as I’m now 2 days since missed period and just thought I’d have dye stealers by now. (I had dye stealers on my first ever test with my first pregnancy, but cycles were irregular and would have been around 5 weeks along when testing, so I’m aware it’s early).

The tests provide some aspect of reassurance regarding line progression but equally I know I should not depend on this. Just really hoping for a sticky one🤞🏼

According to dates I’m 4+3, CB digi weeks is still showing 1-2, but I know those aren’t strictly accurate dating wise.
Just need to ride out the waiting game I guess.

@Martinesatx i completely understand. I am currently doing exactly the same thing myself!! I am also around 4+3, I’ve got a 2-3 on a CB but my lines are no where near as dark as yours are.

it is really hard, I’ve banned myself from buying anymore now until next week. Need to try and leave it a few days and give my hormones chance to double!!

I had my last MC around 6 weeks ago, so I never had another cycle in full since.

keeping my fingers crossed for you. X

I only had a faint line on a frer at 18dpo. Every pregnancy and person is different. Honestly I would step away from the tests for the sake of your well-being. I mean it in the kindest possible way. There is nothing you can do to influence the outcome and you will only cause yourself more worry.
