Worried - Very slow line progression

Hello
I’m extremely worried about my line progression (that can indicate ectopic pregnancy or miscarriage). I’ve had my first “real” positive test at 9dpo, I am currently 13dpo and line is still faint. See images for 9-11 and 13dpo in comments. I added the number to refer to how many dpos I am in the comments. Is there still hope? With baby nr 1 line was stronger than the control line at 13 dpo :(

The frer is the test which is the clearest, the others are just even more faint…

From experience but do not take my words for it but I believe 9dpo is really early it’s actually amazing you did get a line. And 13 is also very early, give it some time. I know it’s hard but wait a couple more days and re test. And you should call your gp tomorrow to schedule a blood test it’ll give you more info. Wish you the best

Looking at your lines there, I’d be happy with that line progression. You’re still very early. A lot of people don’t get positives until 14dpo. I got mine at 12dpo with my daughter & it was super light I almost missed it. I then only tested once a week, only to use tests & see the 3+ on a digital. I also wouldn’t compare pregnancies as your HCG is likely to rise differently as every pregnancy is completely different x

this is so reassuring thank you so much 🤞. I have done nothing but stress out all day today to be completely honest. I will wait a few more days and test again. I am just really scared of a problem like ectopic pregnancy… (I rather detect it early if it’s the case). Thank you for your positive thoughts!

Of course! Aww no, nothing worse that just sitting in your thoughts. I’d say stick to the exact same tests as you’ll see proper line progression there. Hopefully everything will be all ok and baby is in the right place 🤞🏼

I think they're very good lines as well. At 11dpo mine was so faint I questioned whether I saw it for a moment... it wasn't until my period was a good few days late that the lines started to look good!

I’m just really scared of an ectopic pregnancy as I know it’s life-threatening…

That's exactly how my 13 dpo test looked and I'm now just over 26 weeks. I did a digital test as soon as I needed the loo after and got a digital positive too.
They are clearly getting darker so try not to stress x

If you are testing before your period is due, you may find they are not as dark in the evening still, so don't let that dishearten you. I can definitely see the progression from your inital photos.
I had a miscarriage last year, so I know how hard it is to watch that line and test so much. I still tested everyday for a week to make sure. My 14 dpo was darker and then 15dpo lighter.

To be honest my previous pregnancy was a dye stealer at 14dpo, so I had no confidence this time round, but turns out this was rhe pregnancy I was lucky with my rainbow baby. I'm keeping everything crossed for you

Thank you! Not much confidence at the moment but hoping I am wrong

How are you getting on?

I definitely had a chemical pregnancy. Tests turned negative and then I got my “period”. Currently having an extremely crazy cycle (I bought OPks and it’s constantly positive 😪)

Avatar

Oh I'm sorry to hear that... I don't know much about chemicals or why they happen but it sounds horrible. I will be praying for you next month 💛

Avatar

I’m pregnant again! Hoping not another chemical 😩

How are you doing?

had another chemical pregnancy or extremely early miscarriage unfortunately :( but this time it was confirmed via blood tests. Never had this with baby#1 who is only 20 months old ☹️

I'm so sorry 😭

Life is great as older single mom of 1, baby 2 at 45?

I’m 44 with a 5 year old and life is amazing. I’ve been raising this kid alone the whole time and I’m living a dream life where I live between the US, Thailand and Spain. I own a home, have a good remote job, keep my kid with me all day.

I want to have a second child. But not desperately. I’d need to borrow some semen from the bank and while I think it’s unfortunate to not know the origin of the semen and the possibility of 100 siblings , I’m open to it. My insurance covers IUI and IVF through my next birthday.

Would you start over as mom of an infant at 45 years old?

Pregnancy test

I took this pregnancy test and then a few days later I looked at it again and noticed a very faint line but then I took 3 more on different days and they all came out negative. What’s going on? I’m tripping out because I see it but my husband says he doesn’t.

Positive test?

Do yall see it? There’s the original and another one that I added sharpness to and stuff to see the faint liner more better. I took more and they came out negative. So I’m so confused. Also that line didn’t appear immediately I noticed it like the next day.

Any ideas what’s happening with my temp?

Thought I had ovulated but now I’m not so sure, I didn’t record my temp on a couple of days because I’ve been unwell with a fever so it was a lot higher than it should of been
