Early pregnancy test

[concernedprospectivemother]

I have my due date tomorrow for periods. I dont have much cramping at all. It happens once or twice a day and is very faint. I asked my husband to get me an early pregnancy test and I got a good line for positive in the evening around 7 pm. Then I had a second test the next day just to confirm in the morning at 10 am and got a positive but it was little faint. I undertook a third test in the evening the same day and it was a good dark color. Today I took the same test again in the morning and it was positive but was slightly lighter as it was in the second test.

Is this a normal thing to have darker positive in the evening and lighter in the morning because it is strange for me since I heard in the morning the hormone level is the highest. Should I be concerned about this. Please do note that I am happy that atleast I am getting a positive. I am only concerned because me and my husband tried 3 months ago and i was pregnant with a faint line but it was a miscarriage after just 1 week.

I appreciate your answers and advice in advance.

It could just be you're more dehydrated by the end of the day so the hcg shows up in a higher concentration at the end of the day. It's usually better/darker in the morning because most wen don't hydrate all night.

As far as I was concerned about line is a line but your doing the right thing by going to see your doctor! :) good luck x

Thanks Blue. I have set up an appointment with the doctor for 19th March (2 weeks later) but just needed to ask you that you are sure it doesnt matter how dark or light the line is, right? I was just feeling a bit dodgy because of previous miscarriage... :(

I don't think it really makes a difference if it's dark or faint, it's still showing up levels just might be at different concentrates, everyone's different. Both the home tests I took were a little faint from what I remember and I'm now 31 weeks along. Set up a Dr's appt I'm sure they can give you the best answer! Congratulations and good luck!! =)
