Found out I was preg early July and have been testing daily since. minimal symptoms.

my lines are showing but I haven’t seen any other progressions like this - others seem to be getting consistently darker whereas mine have remained the same.

digital tests first showed 2-3 then was 3+ last week.

the picture attached is of E@H test which are taken daily.

any advice would be appreciated

That's fine, the lines can't get any darker on those tests! Honestly stop testing, it doesn't predict outcome.

Those are darker than mine were and I'm currently 39 weeks :)

Your lines starts off quite dark anyway. Step away from the pregnancy tests ❤️

Pregnancy unleashed awful anxiety for me and I kept buying the digital ones for a while to make sure I was still pregnant. Honestly, stop now, you are causing yourself unnecessary anxiety - go and get an early scan if you are really concerned but the lines look absolutely fine.

hi guys. Thanks so much for your responses. I feel absolutely petrified. I’ve had 2 fresh cycles - 2 fresh transfers and 2 frozen transfers.

the first ended with chemical (very early) and the second landed me in hospital with sepsis. The latter two just failed.

I was due to start my third round (NHS) last week but found that AF hadn’t arrived so I tested.. and it’s a natural pregnancy!

im feeling really sad and scared - my EPU apt is next Wednesday. Wish me well!

ive decided to stop with the tests - thanks for your input! Xx

There's no need to test over and over again. It won't change the outcome.

Patientlywaiting7 · 16/07/2024 19:57

@TheShellBeach Yes this has been mentioned. Thanks

Congratulations! I can totally understand the urge to test multiple times. Especially with your history. All the best with everything.

MotherofChaosandDestruction · 16/07/2024 20:07

Oh OP, I hadn't even been through any of this and I was desperately anxious, so I can imagine yours is through the roof! I know it's easier said than done but try and relax, keep busy and do things that bring you joy!

I'll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you next week!

Those tests can’t/won’t get any darker, it’s just how that brand works. Absolutely amazing that you’ve conceived naturally after all that - huge congratulations!

Patientlywaiting7 · 16/07/2024 21:02

@OrangeWaffle not out of the woods yet! Only 6 weeks! But yes really really pleased. And thanks for telling me! I just thought that I had seen other tests on fertility posts where the test was darker than the control and much thicker!
thank you ☺️

So many congratulations on your baby news. And what an awful journey you've had.

Mine wasn't that strong, and I'm now nearly 18 weeks.
