12dpo line progression seems slow after chemical pregnancy, looking for reassurance

I’m worried about my line progression- currently 12dpo (period due on 29th March) don’t feel like I’m seeing much darkening. I had a chemical pregnancy last month so feeling super anxious and just wanting a second opinion ❤️‍🩹

My test was that colour at 12dpo. 8-10dpo is very early to test. Why are you testing twice a day though? FMU only and only every 2 days, I think that's why your progression seems so slow. All of this is meant with kindness. Congratulations and I hope everything goes well.

HCG only doubles every 48-72 hours. You are testing too much (I know, it's hard after loss).

Take the AM reading for 8dpo, 10dpo, 12dpo and line those.uo next to eachother and you'll see the clear progression.

Also try to remember most people only get their first positive at 10/11dpo so a light-ish test is normal at this stage

Thank you I think I’m just getting far too anxious and going a bit test mad 😅 I’m going to stick to FMU from now on!
