Poor line progression

[Nicky449]

Please could I have some advice? This is our line progression from our embryo transfer a week ago. The line this morning looks the same if not lighter than the one 2 days ago 😔

Hi, no real advice I'm afraid but just wanted to say I'm in exactly the same boat! Transfer last Friday, positive tests since Tuesday but todays definitely seems lighter than yesterday. I'm going to try and hold off the tests for a couple of days and hopefully all will be ok. Completely understand the worry though, it's all consuming. Sending positive thoughts 🤞

Hi OP you're in the thick of it at the moment. Testing at this stage can bring so much angst (no criticism - I've done it as well). I would say see what your line looks like on a FRER on day 9 PT - that's when you'd tend to get a positive in a natural pregnancy. Unfortunately, as you know, the embryo will either stick or it won't, and there's nothing you can do to influence that. If your clinic does hCG tests then you could ask for one on Tuesday. Sending you hopeful thoughts for a good outcome.

If you compare the test done at 5DPT in the AM to the 7DPT AM one then I feel there is definite progression! I’d stick with comparing tests in the PM only as they seem to be darker for you. How was this evenings one?

You can drive yourself absolutely crazy testing too much, I’d ask your clinic for 2 BhCG bloods 48 hours apart for certainty

It looks like decent progression to me OP – how are you doing today? Really hope everything works out for you!
