What do you think?

[Maruschke]

I've seen plenty of FRER progression shots where the line gets darker much faster. I am currently 15dpo (10dp5dt).

Beta yesterday was 82 .

Oh I'm SO glad you posted this, I didn't want to be barging into the preg after LTTTC thread

Tell me two things:

Has it been hot where you live?

Have you been drinking lots of water?

Looking at the progression it actually looks fine to me, nothing that a bit of diluted pee wouldn't do. 82 is also a fine number. Don't forget babe, they need numbers that are *healthy* ad *normal* on the lower and higher end to make the average

They look great hun.... CONGRATULATIONS

[Maruschke]

All of these are FMU so it's not about pee strength . I've seen so many photos of super thick dark FRER's at 15dpo that it just really stirred me up this morning. Ugh.

sorry your having this stress Maruschke- I know this feeling so well, staring at the tests over and over.

To me, the last two tests look either the same darkness or the last one is slightly darker. For a BHcG of 82 I think that is fine. Everyone is different, I don't think you can call it yet,you will have to wait it out ( I know thats *****), fingers crossed for a massively sticky bub
You are pregnant babe, with a good Hcg so try to go with it.

I actually got better results when I poas in the afternoon or evening my levels were high to the point of considering twins or molar pregnancy, but it was 'normal' for me I guess. From your progression shots everything looks great.

Doh forgot to add the most important part! My levels were high but my hpts looked similar to yours. A few days later they got much darker.

[Maruschke]

Thanks Saff... I just wish I had a stress free HPT and Beta. Why does everything have to be so fricken hard. Lower betas than expected and naturally lighter HPTs than expected. I guess I just wanted the rollercoaster to be over and it's not.

My arms and legs feel like jelly, like I have no muscles, they have all gone to water. What is that???

[Maruschke]

Just to make the day better, I've got diarrhea.

[sloane]

sorry you're not feeling great this morning

when i was PG with DS the lines got darker & darker....this time i wasn't even convinced i was actually PG (using FRER) because some lines were so faint - some even got more faint at a greater number of DPO. i even had one where i couldn't see a line at all. i discussed with my GP & he said a +ve test is a +ve test & he doesn't care about how strong the line was....not sure if that helps , but it definitely caused me some stress in the first couple of weeks but is still going ok.

sending you lots & lots of

Oh how I wish I could make these next few weeks fly by for you. Dont go near google and honestly the colour of the poas is not a sign of wether your bub is a sticky one. My FS told me I had to just get off the net, and go and do something for myself that would pass the time, relaxing, calming activities, that wouldnt eliviate the absolute fear as to whether bubs would stay.

From one fellow ltttc'er to another, you have to breath and searching the net hun, gives you nothing but anxiety.

No 1 : Diarrhea is common, its the hormones going crazy, and you have nothing to worry about, I went from violent diarrea to constipaion very early on.

Maruschke, it's easy to get into our heads at times like these, like if we think it all out intellectually we can change the end result. My advice to you if you can is to stay in your heart, the heart that knows that everything will be as it should be, stay connected to that and enjoy the results for what they are at the moment which is positively pregnant.... Let yourself be filled with the joy and love that comes with that, not the cold hard world of lines, and google and fear....

May love, joy and peace come to be with you as you walk through this next little while xx

[LysnDan]

M sweetie, my lines didn't even get darker... At all. Even though my hcg was shooting through the roof. Each test has a different amount of dye in it. Even if its from the same batch.

You are pregnant. Sit back. Enjoy it. And congratulations xxx hugs xxx

ladybirdflies : wow, well written, you said eveything I tried to say, but in a much more eloquent way . I imagine you typing from a room filled with candles & calming music.

[Taurean]

Hun, my tests looked like that with both my pregnancies I'm not a believer in the 'line is getting darker' thing. A line is a line, that's all that matters.

Grab yourself a digital test and take a photo of those words on the screen that say 'PREGNANT'

Congrats again!

[JennaJayen]

Looks like mine with this one, at supposed 10dpo they were so faint as to be almost invisible, at supposed 11dpo they were just visible and bHCG was 16, and they slowly got stronger, my next BT at supposed 15dpo was 68.

With DD my tests look very similar too, though from 15dpo onwards, bHCG at 16dpo was only 29, late the next week it was only 711 I think, and 1.5wks later it was only 15700 or something like that and DD is now 8 months old

Congratulations are in order

Maruschke,

Congrats on your pregnancy! I hope you are starting to relax about it all and beable to enjoy your pregnancy

~can't wait 2b a mum~

[glenny_c]

Hey honey, please try not to worry. My beta with this pregnancy at 15DPO was only about 45 I think. It was so low the doc told me he thought I was losing the bub. Also my FRER were really faint for ages. Freaked me out completely so I understand how you feel! But remember PUPO!!
