18-19 DPO Test Line Advice

[CB94]

Hi,

I tested on what I beleive to be 12-13 DPO and got a very faint positive which I confirmed with a digital test. (Sorry no picture).

Today (18-19 DPO) my result is as picture shows, much more noticable than last week but not completely solid or a "dye-stealer" as some would say.

My query is if this looks potentially ok, I have had no pain or spotting and have felt various pains alternating in breasts as well as being much more tired/fatigued than usual. Sorry if this comes across as overly anxious but I keep comparing this to other progressions i've seen and no idea if its ok or not.

That's a very strong positive. You're definitely pregnant. These tests are notorious for false positives, but that it not one 😂 there's no reason to think anything is going wrong at this point.

That is a solid line? What makes you think it's not solid?

Most people don't even get dye stealers.

You are very much pregnant.

Hi,

Thank you for your response!

I have just seen much darker lines at 19 DPO from other forums etc which caused me a bit of worry. Unfortunately due to a previous loss I am quite anxious.

Is it? Even for 19DPO?

I do trust I am pregnant my worry was more if its dark enough that it looks like it is progressing as it should.

Thank you very much for you response.

Yes. It's a very very strong line.

I recommend you step away from testing. I don't think it will do your mental health any good.

What’s a dye stealer?? Thats positive thats all the matters. I found the clear blue ones that tell the weeks more reassuring. But testing won’t change anything, so try and avoid now you’ve had a positive.

Can you do a week's indicator one? I'll admit mine at your stage was a definite dye stealer but I think I had particularly high HCG levels and I ended up with Hyperemesis and I'm having a girl. I completely understand the worry, I had two chemicals before this pregnancy and tested like a mad woman!! Aslong as the line isn't getting lighter I wouldn't worry, I'm sure all is fine. Congratulations!

Hi,

Thanks for response, fortunately it is much more noticeable than my first. My worry was more if it was in line with 18-19 DPO.

I may decide to do a weeks indicator but ideally as long as no negative signs I will try my best to limit testing.

Hi there. This is me at 18 days post. Pretty faint I was so worried but all was ok still pregnant now xx

Thank you for your message and congratulations!

If you don't mind me asking how far along are you?

Hiya thanks!
I think there’s so much variation in reality, I did IVF so I know it was exactly 18 days and my medical team were so unconcerned about line faintness
I’m nearly 14 weeks now xx
