Hi all.

I am currently 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant and 17 DPO but I'm worried about the test not being a "dye stealer" or getting noticeably darker. They have been getting darker until now.

I had a chemical pregnancy last month at 4 weeks pregnant so I am feeling very anxious.

The first picture is from 11DPO
The second pic is from 15 DPO
The last is from today 17DPO

I got a clear blue 2-3 weeks on Saturday as well.

I have very sore breasts, nauseous and some mild cramping.

Sorry for the long post and any reassurance would be greatly received.

Thank you xx

Sorry to hear about the chemical pregnancy and congratulations on this pregnancy! It’s so hard to relax after something has happened… but please try not to over think things. The fact you have symptoms like sore breasts is a great sign (but not necessarily a bad sign if it disappears, so don’t panic if that happens!)

I think you need to try to stop testing now OP! Try to enjoy the pregnancy. Maybe go for an early scan if it’ll help you mentally. But please try not to overthink.

Thank you for taking the time to reply!

You're right I do need to, just finding it a very anxious time! Its actually my second but I don't remember feeling this way with my first xxx

Agree with PP OP, I know it's tough but they're really just designed to be positive or negative rather than show progression and lots of things can impact it (levels of hydration, how long you've held your wee for etc)

Yours are positive!
