Can someone reassure me

[agirlhasnoname]

So, i got an incredibly faint positive on Tuesday, which is 8/9 dpo for me. It was on an easy@home cheapie. It was faint but my husband could see it. Confirmed with FRER the next day. I’ve been testing since then but my lines are slow to get dark on the easy@home. I think today (12/13 dpo) is the darkest they’ve gotten but it’s still pretty light. I’m still can see my lines clearly on FR. I’m trying to not get anxious about this being a chemical but now I’ve worried myself that it’s an ectopic. [emoji31] I know I shoild stop testing but I can’t help it.

I don't put much stock into darkness of tests. While we never want to see a very dark test disappear to barely there, it is very normal for tests to stay light even a few days past a missed period or to even dance back and forth from light to darker from day to day.

While a chemical is certainly possible, please do not jump from a light test at 12 DPO to an ectopic. There's no reason to do that, and the vast majority of the time (I mean like 99.9%) of the time people come to me with fear of ectopic it's not ectopic at all. At this stage of gestation it is like worrying about your house catching on fire - is it possible, yes, does it happen, yes, but the chance that it will happen to you is pretty slim.

Is it getting lighter still?

Is it getting lighter still?

My first response last night was the same darkness from Wednesday. Took at rapid response this morning with SMU and looked neg. I just took another and it’s positive but definitely way way lighter. I’m roughly 13/14 dpo. I’m not very hopeful especially since all my digitals have been reading negative—even with the strong FRER. [emoji29]

Yeah that would definitely be what I would assume, a chemical. I'm so sorry.

Let me know how I can help with this upcoming month!
