Ok you all probably think I'm crazy. But so baffled.
Here is fmu and afternoon test
Why such a difference?
Should I really worry?

Augh I answered this and my reply didn't post.
I'ts not unusual for lines to dance back and forth from darker to lighter and even from positive to negative at this point. Things like the amount of hormone that comes out in your urine (as opposed to blood - it's blood levels that matter), how concentrated your urine is (and FMU can be diluted because you save up liquid overnight, contrary to popular belief it's not always the best), and even indivdual variations in the tests themselves.
I don't think testing again and again accomplishes anything other than adding stress. It's NORMAL for there to be some variation. The tests are just not that sensitive and are very easily affected by variables that have nothing to do with "how pregnant" we are. I would test no more than once a day (if you MUST) or even once every few days if you can manage.

I know it’s so hard to not test, especially if you have lots of tests on hand. If you really are concerned about how things may be progressing, call your doc to have betas drawn. They almost always have you complete two tests to check to see if the hormones are doubling like they should. Otherwise, Atomic gave great advice- test no more than once a day (I would do every other).

Hi Atomic!
Gosh I have been a ball of nerves but know it's not good so trying to just relax and truly thanking God for this blessing. It's all out of my control anyway, it always was. I truly plan to enjoy every single moment of this pregnancy.
I never realized how much a loss truly affected me. I'm just so thankful. Havent told DH yet!
I ordered these the other day and they just came!

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
