Why isn’t my line darker? 😞

Question

They both have color to them (just didn’t pick up on camera for some reason) and I had 2 HCG draws so I know I am pregnant....very early (like 2-3 weeks) but I had a MC in June so I’m still testing. Top was yesterday with FMU and bottom is today with FMU. I’m so scared to lose our Rainbow Baby 😞😞 thank for any advice

Answer

The line getting darker doesn’t mean anything. Some people have a light line the entire time. Home tests are just to say pregnant or not. Stop testing, you will drive yourself nuts

Answer

What we’re the hcg levels when you got them drawn? If you’re 2-3 weeks they wouldn’t be high at all. If you’re that early I’m sure that’s why its so faint. I wouldn’t worry unless your bleeding & cramping.

Answer

Coming off my MC I got two light tests like that at first.  I had my levels checked at 4 & 6 weeks and they went up nicely.  Your levels sound good. I would test again in a few days if it would help ease your mind. But what’s more important is what your dr says your levels are doing.  That’s a much better indicator than a test. Time of day and how much you drank can throw the stick off.  Good luck! Were 26wks now with our 🌈 praying for you!

Answer

If you’re getting blood work done stop testing with hpts, waiting on the bw results will stress you out enough so there’s no point in analyzing the lines on a hpt too. Blood work is so much more accurate than a hpt, as long as it’s doubling you’re okay. Even if it starts low, mine started at 16 at 3w6d, I never saw a dark hpt bc I stopped testing after that bc I was having regular bw.

Answer

The line isn’t a good indication of how well the pregnancy is doing. I would wait 2 days, as your hcg should double or at least raise by 60% in 2 days, and then test again.

Answer

You're definitely preggers, congrats!

Answer

Also, HCG doubles ever 48 hours, so testing everyday won’t give you a darker line. Trust the blood tests. Try to breath. I had a MC in June and got pregnant 2 weeks after, it’s been a roller coaster.

Answer

line darkness doesnt mean anything

Answer

I would go by how the Hgg levels are at the doctor office. 2-3 weeks is really early. So try not to worry to much but I know that’s not easy.

Answer

This ended in a miscarriage.
