Strong CB but faint strip tests?!

I’m 19DPO, my strip tests are progressing, but they are v faint. I had a miscarriage last October and by this point my tests were super dark. I’ve done CB tests too (pic in comments) which seem to be strong? I’m confused 😕 does it matter how strong the line is or just that it seems to be progressing? Praying this bean sticks 🙏🏻

Try not to compare these tests to other tests, this pregnancy is its own thing. I know that’s hard, I do it every time Progress is progress and all six of these tests are progressing. There’s a myriad of reasons the strips would appear lighter. Try to have faith in your body 🤞🏻♥️

@Jennie aw thank you 🙏🏻 finding it difficult to trust anything (after 2 miscarriages at 8.5 weeks and 1 chemical) I’m so desperate for this to be real 🙏🏻🙏🏻 I wish I could switch my brain off 🙃

I know exactly how you feel. I lost three and then we finally got pregnant with my son… I literally tested every day, sometimes multiple times a day and I was over thinking every single thing. It’s a rough ride mentally. Just remember that there’s nothing you can do, other than look after yourself. And a lot of that means mentally. Because it’s the mental load that can cause stress and stress is not a happy place for the body to be in. Have you tried meditating? There are some really good visualisation meditations and they’re very centring and focused.
