Hi everyone,

Do you think the lack of line progression is concerning at this point? It hasn’t been 48 hours since my first test yet, but the lines aren’t getting any darker so far. I’m prone to chemicals😞 but have never had one with lines this dark before. What do you think?

it looks good to me!

It would worry me but I also think it’s too soon to tell.

It looks fine, but it also doesn’t give any guarantees. Your levels will be doubling but the levels will still be so low at 11dpo that it’s not going to make a huge difference to the dye in a test. I hope it all goes well for you OP

Looks fine! Congratulations ☺️

I think these tests are designed as a 'yes/no' answer not a 'how pregnant are you' diagnostic.

Those are strong lines for 9-11 DPO and you are currently pregnant. Congratulations x

Thank you for all of your responses! I’ll keep you all updated on the outcome in the next few days😊x

This is all too familiar, I used FR tests for all 5 pregnancies and line progression is usually very accurate with them. It didn't progress well in 2 of my chemicals and that's how I knew... Then it progressed nicely with another pregnancy but I still miscarried at 7 weeks. It's a waiting game now but as someone who had a healthy baby after 3 miscarriages all I can say is keep trying and don't give up - it's a process and it doesn't come easily for many women. It's worth persevering, good luck x

I've added a picture of the line progression which I had in the last chemical and the last successful pregnancy for reference, but everyone is different and it's not exact science

Thanks for commenting. Sorry for your losses🤍 I had a stillbirth in 2017 and 6 chemicals before I had my 6 year old. This will be my 2nd chemical in 3 months if it doesn’t progress😞 Thank you for your advice and congrats on getting a healthy baby in the end x

Update - I’ve just held my wee for 4 hours and took another first response 48 hours after the first and this is the result! So confusing as my test this morning with FMU was the same as yesterday morning

9dpo and 11dpo I see a difference. But I woukd wait untio 14DPO as you wioo see the biggest jump by then. All the best.

I know how you feel I have had 3 chemicals and 1 6week loss. It sucks. You can never relax.

Mine have been the same. Aoeey just seen updates. My 5pm urine is better then AM so I stuck with PM testing. So odd. But assume implantation occured afternoon. I did feel pinching and pulling at 8pm.
