Hello - going slightly crazy over here and would love to hear views/experiences.

I know the answer is that a line is a line and I should stop testing. But I have had two miscarriages and a chemical pregnancy this year and I can't seem to stop myself from testing or panicking!

I took a pregnancy test on Sunday and it was positive - about 15 dpo I think. I did a digital yesterday (pregnant 1-2 weeks) and then did another frer today. Again positive but the line hasn't got darker. My boobs are a bit sore and I am really tired but no other symptoms.

I have (hopefully) attached the photo of the two frers to this post. My biggest worry at the moment is that the line hadn't got any darker - might actually be a bit lighter.

I guess my question is would you get lines this dark normally with a chemical pregnancy? With my previous cp I got a squinter (although much earlier around 10 dpo) and it was gone the next day.

Sorry - I know I need to be patient and wait. I just can't stop thinking about it - the stress of the previous miscarriages weighs very heavily on my mind. Thanks in advance

Hey congratulations those lines are so dark I doubt they could get much darker. I think it's time to put the tests down good luck

Oh I totally understand. I was the exact same after a mc and 2 chemicals.
I tested every other day but sometimes it would look the same. Over time though I could see the difference. I just couldn't stop I know it's bad 🙈
The line is already v.dark so probably won't be as drastic now!

Thanks so much for replying

The line is dark - weirdly I think because I held off and didn't test before I missed my period it has made it harder as I can't see any progression from faint to dark

I need to calm down - there is a line and I have to be patient And try to be positive for this one to stick xx

They look the same to me - maximum dark which is good Smile I did so many tests this pregnancy after mc last time, it was quite mad, but probably also quite normal in the circumstance so I tried not to be too hard on myself about it.
