Anyone at 5 weeks still had faint lines and CB digital reading 1-2 weeks at almost 5 weeks?

Hi looking for some advice I tested a week ago (4 days before period due) and used a CB digital which said pregnant, I done 2 of these both said pregnant
Since then across the past week I've done some boots cheapies and a CB non digital which all had really faint lines. I've also done 2 more CB digital with dating a week apart and both gave 1-2 weeks (even though I should be almost 5 weeks) I'm currently 2 days post due period.
I visited the doctor earlier this week and she did a test and got a very very very faint line but she said if I got a positive at home too then I was pregnant and didn't seem concerned.
Just a bit worried that my lines haven't darkened across a week.
I drink 1.5-2litres of water a day but every test was FMU without drinking beforehand.
I have lots of cramping, which dr said was normal, have had no bleeding, have mild nausea on and off, appetite lower than normal and have tender breasts/nipples.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated, has anyone else had really faint lines all along and digital dating 1-2 weeks at 5 weeks and everything been OK?
I was tracking ovulation which was the 17th of Oct and we DTD 15th, 16th and 17th x

I got 1-2 weeks at 16 dpo and it skipped straight to 3+ weeks less than a week later. They're not perfectly exact. Honestly I would try not to worry unless you start bleeding x

Thanks so much I'm just so nervous of everything x I think I'll wait a week to test again to stop torturing myself and hopefully I'll get a dark line or further on in weeks by then x

This happened to me & sadly ended in a chemical. Hopefully it's not the case for you x

So sorry to hear this x Hopefully not, I'm keeping everything crossed

Hello. This is happening to me now. Do you mind me asking how this turned out for you? Everything crossed for good news for you

My easy at home strips stayed a medium colour, so pink and not faint but about half the strength of the control line. They never faded but didn’t get darker either. My clear blue stayed at 1-2 weeks when I tested at 12dpo and then 19dpo and then at 20 dpo (so 5 weeks pregnant based of lmp) I had a chemical and started to bleed. Doesn’t mean yours will stay the same though, but it helped me to mentally prepare knowing that my strips weren’t progressing in colour

I’m so sorry to hear this. Thank you for responding

I’m sorry op but I would prepare yourself for the loss of this pregnancy. At 5 weeks, to be showing 1-2 on multiple tests would indicate this pregnancy hasn’t progressed
