Freaking Out.

I took my first tests Thursday. The strips don’t seem to be getting any darker but the other brands of tests are all positive. With my daughter, the test strips just continued to get darker. It feels like this time around the line has stayed the same. Has this happened with anyone?

Technically they should darken every 24-48 hours

@Liz yes that’s why I’m freaking out 🫠

If you want peace of mind go get a blood draw (I have a home birth midwife who did it for me) and check HCG twice a few days apart and also Progesterone just to make sure.

@Eileen but it’s only been 24!

That was happening with my daughter and I did blood work and my progesterone was slowly declining. If you’re worried, I’d go that route! They ended up having me take progesterone till 16 weeks.

My easy@home test have only gotten slightly darker but my frer are obvious. I have a blood test Monday and Thursday to check my levels. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I was using the easy @ home pregnancy strips and the lines were getting lighter, not darker. That was like over 10 weeks ago. I’m 19 weeks pregnant now and everything looks good 😊 so idk how much stock to put in those, but if you want some reassurance get blood work done.
