They do have the curved handle! I totally hate that they do but our stores don't carry the other ones anymore.

The variations in hormones in your urine at this point of pregnancy mean that you can have darker and then lighter tests. That is ok. You CANNOT tell viability of pregnancy on the basis of that.

The only time pregnancy tests ever tell you anything is when you have a quite dark test that suddenly nearly vanishes. That is concerning, but at this stage of pregnancy it is meaningless and both those tests look normal to me for this gestation.

The second does look slightly darker to me. And with those tests, I found a better result with SMU rather than first

Based on the 30 day cycles I've been having AF was due today (and didn't come) but Fertily Friend says tomorrow based on when I ovulated so we will see what tomorrow brings.

Thank you Atomic! That really does help my stress level a lot. Do you think they should eventually get darker like around 5 weeks or does that not really always happen either?

Apparently I was right, this morning the line is barely there at all. When is this going to end ��

:-( wait a few more days and test again. Was this fmu? X

Yes it was FMU with at least a 6-7 hour hold. :/

My OB is sending out for blood work since I'm not bleeding, guess we shall see how it goes.
