can anyone help so worried
I’m 4 weeks 5 days pregnant but don’t feel it at all! Is this a bad sign ??
Never been pregnant before
Did a test today and worried it looks a bit lighter than one I did two days ago ? The test today is the one on the left.
plus it doesn’t have the darker thin line that the one above has ?
please let me know your thoughts
Congrats on your positive result 💗
Stop testing as you will drive yourself crazy
Most symptoms don’t kick in until 6 weeks
Congrats! I wouldn’t read too much into it. The control seems lighter on the most recent one too, so it must have less dye overall. It’s probably best to stop testing now and try to enjoy the positive. Testing every 2 days won’t change the outcome and will likely make you unnecessarily stressed. And don’t worry about symptoms, it’s too early to feel anything meaningful. I mostly had pulling sensations in my lower abs and a heavy uterus like before getting a period. Some women have some classic symptoms this early on, yeah, but for most, they tend to start around 6-7 weeks I think. Good luck at the viability scan!
I completely get how you’re feeling—this part can be so full of worries. I remember being in the same boat, feeling like something should be happening but not really feeling “pregnant” until well after week 6.
It’s actually super common for symptoms to take a little while to kick in, and every pregnancy is unique, so what you’re experiencing is totally normal. And with the tests, they can sometimes vary in shade based on the time of day, how much water you’ve had, and so on. As long as you’re getting positives, that’s a good sign! xxx
Thanks you so much for replying - I’m going to try and not test! Thank xxx
The test looks good to me, from someone who drove herself crazy with analysing the lines, the tests are not that sensitive. The line looks good and strong so I would say don’t keep testing.
I know it’s a long wait until the first scan. I got myself in such a tizz that I ended up asking my GP for a HCG test , but it was unnecessary really as everything was fine, I just got myself really worked up about the progression of the lines.
I had no symptoms until at least 6 weeks with both my babies, and even at 6 weeks, just some on off nausea.
Good luck, try and distract yourself and enjoy the time before the morning sickness kicks in. 🍀🍀xx
hey, I was exactly the same as you. I was in denial that I was pregnant and tested every other day for a good few weeks! All I would say is all my clear blue tests were different and I don’t think they’re the best to measure line progression. I’d say yours look really strong positives though and that’s definitely a good sign. Unless you can see a really obvious change I wouldn’t really be concerned. My last test I did is actually less thick than an earlier one but im 10 weeks pregnant now. Also symptom wise iv only really had slightly sore boobs from FET and I’m slightly more hungrier. I didn’t have any nausea and still don’t! Because of this I was convinced something was wrong but is possible to have minimal/no symptoms and everythjng be ok. I had a private scan on the weekend and everything is ok. Hang in there, try and steer away from testing if you can and congratulations on your pregnancy 🫶 xx
Thank you - that’s interesting. Congrats to you! This wait feels so long xxx
Only bloods will tell your how the pregnancy is progressing. Don't torture yourself with resting like this. X
Thank you
Stop testing! Unless your told otherwise by a health care professional , just take it your pregnant. You'll honestly drive yourself insane doing this. I nearly lost my mind testing every day
I never had any symptoms of pregnancy at all. No sore boots, no sickness, absolutely nothing. I felt completely normal, just my usual self throughout whole pregnancy and didn't believe it even when I saw scans haha
I only started feeling pregnant last few weeks of pregnancy as my stomach started getting bigger and I was slowing down a bit
Wow really that’s interesting . I need to stop fixating on it like trying to look for every little thing. Thanks for your help! Xxx
Definitely stop fixating on tests. My tests actually started getting lighter around 7 weeks and I started panicking and stressing out that I was having another mc but all was good .Your pregnant, congrats. Stop testing and go enjoy your pregnancy x
If your anxious then you can get a hcg blood test. You can do them at home yourself through companies like medichecks. You’d need to do two, 48 hours apart to check that the levels are rising as they should (they should double)
This is torture
So worried
MY BOOBS ARE GETTING SMALLER😌
6 +4 weeks and bleeding! 
Lighter line on FRER
