Pregnancy tests

[charlotte0808]

I am slightly confused and worried with the pregnancy tests I am taking. I've been doing just cheap ones and have had a small progression in darkness but quite slight sensitivity 25mlu I took my first, first response today and 2 blaring lines. I know first response is much more sensitive but which test should I take as more accurate? After 2 chemicals I'm just stressing a lot and looking to see if anyone has more faints or blaring lines. I'm 16dpo today. Any help appreciated thanks!

You've had positives on both. Both are reliable, congratulations you are pregnant.
Stop testing often, line progression is not an indicator of pregnancy viability.
I've had lots of chemicals and mc's, I know it's hard but all you can do is hope things work out in the early days. Good luck

I feel so obsessed with it 🙈 I'm going to do clearblue digital tomorrow hoping it's at least 2/3.. so the darker the line doesn't mean it's better than a faint one?

Not any better really. Darkness varies by brand too, 1st response are really good for early testing. The digital can be worrying for some as they don't always show progression that people expect. May as well stick to cheap tests if you must keep testing.
Once I get a strong positive I only do tests once a week until 6wk then self refer to the midwife team. Currently 21+2wk, this one has been a constant worry but doing well so far.

I don't really want to keep testing. I'd like to stick to the first response result and the lines are dark but don't won't to trick myself all is ok because of one test as others have put me off. I do feel abit more reassured as I thought it would progress like every 2 days! So pleased it's going well for you.
