Bfp feb 5 I’m still worried my fmu test is lighter than my

Bfp feb 5 I’m still worried my fmu test(Walmart tests) is lighter than my night test from Sunday. My cheap wish tests look like they are getting darker tho(took when I took the Walmart test this morning). Is it normal to have a test lighter then the test before occasionally? Ignore the numbers and tallies they keep me keep track of the order they were taken.

    I would test again and see what your next one looks like. It doesn’t look a ton lighter than the previous

    I ran out of the 88cent Walmart cheapies but had another wish dip test. The top is yesterday and the bottom is just now. I think it looks a bit darker. Maybe it’s just the quality of the Walmart tests some show super dark lines then there’s a handful of those shitty tests that don’t show an accurate result. I went into panic mode and googled it and a lot of ladies say their Walmart tests aren’t getting darker after a certain point Or fluctuate just a little meanwhile there are a few who get super dark test lines. I didn’t have an ob so I have to wait till the 21st to see them so I’m just anxious. Just worried something will go wrong I guess.

    Those strips definitely look darker to me. Just to ease your mind, I would stop testing just so it doesn’t drive you crazy

    Thank you I really appreciate your response I definitely am going to stop testing. I just can’t help it 😅

    If you really want to know, I would call and ask your doctor for a blood test. They can confirm if the pregnancy is viable by drawing blood two days apart and comparing to see if the HCG numbers have doubled or reduced. But yea, I would agree with the other user, I would stop taking tests. I would think if you aren't bleeding and passing clumps though that you should be fine! :)

    Thank you both ❤️ Would the ob beagle to do that even tho haven’t had my first apt with them yet? Or is that something they have to wait until after to do.
