Dye Stealer on Boots Test, strong line on cheap test

Hi,

im so worried and I regret doing this. I’m about 4 weeks 4 days pregnant. I did a Boots test 2 days ago it was a very strong line maybe even a dye stealer. Today I did a cheap 9’e Step test and there was a strong line but not as dark. Now I’m panicking! I had a blighted ovum 2 years ago so I’m feeling very anxious.

ive been having twinges and very mild cramps (they’re not painful more like a pulling sensation) no bleeding or spotting and my only symptoms are headaches, tired and boobs sore when squeezed. The symptoms are still there so I’m hoping it’s not a bad sign :(

They're both positive.

You can't compare lines on different tests

Please don’t panic. I have used both of those tests before and got the same result as you. The cheap tests just don’t get as dark but my pregnancy progressed fine.
