Is this line progression ok?

Hi guys, after 2 miscarriages- cp and a mmc, I'm pregnant again. I'm officially due my period on the 9th, but did I test last week, which showed a shadow of a line.
I've taken tests each day but am worried there isn't any line progression. I'm also away from home, helping mum in a different country (found out after I got here) so no one knows, not even my husband, as I'm scared I'll miscarry again. I don't want to get everyone's hopes up again. My last mmc broke me. I'm a lot better this time but I'm worried. I have some symptoms - nausea, somewhat sore boobs and some cramps - but I also have stage 4 endo, so this is normal for me.
What do you think of the progression? Any words of advice?

Hi OP, first of all- congratulations! My only advice is honestly to put the tests down for now, test again on the day your period is due. These tests were never meant to measure progression, they have 2 answers: Positive and Negative, you can have very little in the way of progression and have a healthy pregnancy and as my midwife told me you can have strong lines for weeks even after miscarrying so the lines on tests cannot and should not be used for reassurance/to measure progression, that’s not what they were made for. You are pregnant until told otherwise, put the tests down and try not to stress too much x

Thank you x
I should know this as my mmc was showing strong results even though baby had stopped growing 2 weeks before. I don't know why I do this to myself.
I'm gonna try to stay away. What is meant to happen will happen x
