Does this progression look okay?

Do I have anything to worry about? I’ve been taking tests every day (I know that’s bad) but they seem to have stopped getting darker which is sending me into a bit of a panic.

Also any tips on how to stop worrying? I know what will be will be etc but it’s very difficult to stop obsessing

Looks fine and looks similar to mine. (I'm 17dpo)
The tests don't have enough dye to get much darker i don't think and someone said to me that hgc rises a little slower after four weeks so better to test after 2-3 days have passed if checking lines.
I also test every day and just bought another pack of 20 tests. 😅

Thank you, glad I’m not alone haha

That's looking grand. Look at the difference between 13dpo and 19dpo. Perfect 👌

Looks perfect!

Hi! Sorry to jump on your post but how do your tests stay the same as when you took them?! I keep getting faint positives and try to check progression but within about 30 minutes the lines are considerably darker... which is obviously out of the timeframe?.. how have your faint lines managed to stay faint days after? Lol!

I hope you r well and have stopped worrying! Easier said than done...clearly! X

My tests never got darker than your 18dpo one. Just been for an early scan and baby happy and healthy x

The first test I ever took was very very faint and got a little darker after the time frame. Oddly, after that test, they all seem to fade after the time frame.

Between 14-18dpo it was quite easy to see progression because even if they faded when drying, the tests still looked different to the days before. But now i’m 27dpo and within the time frame the test line looks considerably darker than the control line but when it dries it looks the same as the control line. So admittedly it’s not a great way of checking progression and I’m going to stop now, just used my last test

Also yes I think I have stopped worrying quite a bit. Managed to go 3 days without testing this time and I’m planning on stopping now, thanks :)

Thanks for the other replies
