Line of progression, Chemical pregnancy? Top 13 dpo, middle 14 dpo, bottom 15 dpo. I feel like the line is fading 😔 and it should be way darker at this point. Is this what a chemical pregnancy looks like? We been trying for over a year now

Question

Answer

Progression lines are such a dangerously tricky game to play especially because in the beginning it can take up to 72 hours to double verses after your period when your doubling time goes closer to 48 hours.
So let's just do a for instance.
Let's say at the time of implantation your hcg hovered around 3.5. So 3 days later it's around 7 and you get a faint positive on an frer. Then it takes almost 3 days to double again to a 14. So the line will still be decently lightish. Then 2 - 3 days later the time decrease between doubling and your level jumps to a 60. That line can still be soooo light yet!! When your levels get over 100 you'll see a bigger difference in color of the line.
I've had 6 miscarriages in a row and I've played the line progression game every single dang time and I'll tell you it's such a waste of money and yet so hard not to do. So I'm just going hope this comment will calm your nerves because it's likely if I get another positive I'll do the same thing, but try not to freak out!!! It's soooo early yet.

Answer

I had a chemical pregnancy last month.  The day I found out the lines were super super faint.  Like could barely capture on camera.  I took blue dye test an it showed, just faint.  I took some the next few days an they never got darker! I tried to just tell myself I’m early.  But I had a feeling something was wrong.  By day six I had started spotting an it got heavier an heavier to full blown period.  😞 clots came An I knew whatever pregnancy level I was at had never progressed an now my body is flushing it out.  To me those lines say you are really pregnant an try not to worry mama!!  If you are super worried maybe schedule blood test or ultrasound.  But basically my tests were super faint to faded to nothing an than bleeding.  Stay positive! ❤️

Answer

So these 2 tests were dipped in the same urine at 5 weeks. I felt like the one line was so much darker than the other but they were the same urine! So, the tests can be a little tricky too. Like I said this was 5 weeks and the day I finally stopped testing with my last pregnancy.
