Shall I freak out over the progression?

I'm 29 DPO, next week I have my first prenatal appointment and the progression from yesterday is not looking good. What do we think?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Test again in a couple more days. You could have just been more hydrated!

Those are first response tests for early testing, you're 29dpo and your hormones are probably too high now to be making those effective. I know the wait for 12 weeks is horrible but testing now isn't really going to tell you very much. I had a fainter test at 18dpo after a dye stealer at 16dpo and freaked out, everything was fine and I'm 38 weeks now. It's tough but it's time to stop testing, you're pregnant, that's all they can tell you.

You’re well past the point where there’s any point looking at this. Unless there was no line, just knows you’re pregnant now. Both lines are the same which is what they should be.

No, they're fine.

You're past the point of testing now so try to relax I know it's easier said than done .

Thank you . I guess it's the test line looking so much fainter in a day which scared me!

ahhh i had this exact same crap with the frer and also the week indicators one having weeks decreasing and i am 20 weeks now!😆 it really freaked me out and put so much stress to me then, my only advise is - please do not do any more tests for your own sake! Enjoy your pregnancy x

At 29dpo you'd be better off booking an early scan in a week or so. It will tell you so much more than a test. Pregnancy tests, especially first response, are only really useful in the very early days of pregnancy.
