When you POAS be it OPK or HPT the darkness of your urine can affect the appearance of the lines, if you understand. Your top test has a darker urine colour behind the lines making them appear darker but I would say the lines are the same realistically :)

I also worried about lines taking too long to get darker, sometimes worrying they were lighter. All was perfect.

If your urine is slightly more concentrated that will make them lighter. Each test can have different variations of dye darkness even in same brand tests :)

Last thing to note is the biggest changes you will see are every 48hrs with HPT more so than every day.

They honestly look about the same to me, but I trust what you are seeing. Was the one from today with FMU? If not, that could make a difference. Also how much fluids you had today compared to yesterday.

I would test in a few days, but I know how hard it is to wait! FWIW, I couldn't get a positive test until 21DPO with DS2, and I didn't get a dark test until 35DPO!

I wouldn't put much stock into the darkness of tests. Maybe call your OB to do a Beta HCG test? That will tell you much more than how dark a test is.

this is too early to worry about the darkness of the lines. the concentration in your urine can rise and fall at this point and make a big difference in the color of the tests just because there is so little there at this point.

Congrats and sending you tons of sticky dust!!

Yesterday's test was done about 11am, I only had one coffee in the morning so hadn't drunk much, this mornings was done fmu but yes I see what your saying by the yellowing of the test. I hope and pray it is nothing and come Friday I will be updating with some darker lines

They both look very similar to me and it looks like a BFP!
I wouldn't expect them to be soo dark yet if you're only 10/11dpo.
Congratulations!

That pic was taken soon after I did the test, once I had left the test for a while the colour really came out. It looks even better

Wishing you a happy & healthy pregnancy :)
