26dpo Is it odd that the line is still not completely dark?

I feel like I'm just overly worried that it means something could be wrong with the baby if I have low hgc levels compared to what I should be at 26dpo. I don't even know if this is abnormal though. Do the test strips even get darker than this?

Mine never got darker with my boys. Infact I didn't get a positive on a urine test at 5+5 with my son but a blood test (prior to a CT scan) showed I was pregnant and I was 6+1 x

my first son was positive at 5+2 with a clear blue digital. X

I had lower hcg with my daughter, but it can happen with either sex.

I made the mistake of taking a test at almost 8 weeks pregnant and the test line was so faint that I immediately assumed something was wrong. Of course it was the weekend & we were supposed to tell family that night, so I went to the ER for an ultrasound before we announced. Baby was fine and I was mildly embarrassed lmao 🤦🏼‍♀️ I would honestly just stop testing, even tho I know that’s hard to do when you’re worried!
