Pregnancy Test & HCG Anxiety

I have been a wreck since I found out I’m pregnant a little over a week ago. It’s a much wanted pregnancy but I’m afraid I’m heading for a chemical. I am 5 weeks 3 days today. Last Monday my HCG was only 16 and last Thursday it was only 20. I got another HCG blood draw today and results will come tomorrow but the wait is killing me. I took a first response pregnancy test (early detection) yesterday and it was darker than the last so I finally started to feel relief. This is the top one pictured. All the ones before it were incredibly faint. Today I took the test pictured on the bottom. I am a wreck. The only “optimistic” thought I have is that since it was a different kind of test - first response rapid test (1 min result) - that maybe it has a harder time reading HCG? But even then that tells me it’s still low. I am just having a really hard time holding it together

It's so difficult! I've had 2 chemicals this year after a mmc last may. I have no advice but thinking of you!

Call your doc asap and ask to pre out on progesterone supplement or professors support of some kind!!!

Progesterone support*

@Lisa I asked for that and baby aspirin, she denied the progesterone but approved the low dose aspirin. After I started taking it my numbers doubled for the next test so now we are just waiting for the ultrasound in a week 🤷🏼‍♀️
