Afternoon

This post is a TMI one unfortunately.

I'm 6 weeks on the dot today.
Pregnancy test haven't got no lighter but don't seem to be getting darker at this stage, not sure if it's something to worry about.
Also Has anyone at this stage experienced a lot of discharge(mucus). Like clear jelly and just genuinely a lot which can sometimes make you feel "wet"

Am I going crazy🫠
Again sorry in advance for the TMI just need to know if anyone can relate?

Testing at this point won't be telling you much I'm afraid, there's a hook effect once hCG gets high enough and the tests can even start to get lighter. They aren't really designed to keep showing progression at this stage (or any stage really)

Mucus changes are normal but any odd odours would be worth seeing a doctor

As above. The hook effect is very impressive - at eight weeks my tests were barely visible, unless I heavily diluted my urine and then I got a strong result. And yep, allll sorts of discharge happens. As long as it doesn't have a strong smell and you feel well and it's not blood it'll be fine.
