No Line Progression?? **5DPT to 8DPT**

[MrsXX]

Hi All, Today is 8DP5DT. I am so terrified that this transfer didn't work, as I cannot see any line progression. Is there any hope? My HCG is booked for tomorrow.

hey lovely it’s so hard when you test early and then go blind comparing the lines! With my second I had a lighter test than another but here he is, causing chaos. Sit tight, won’t be long now xx

Hi lovely,

Line progression is the devil!! Honestly I had a very similar thing last week. I tested super early (from day 3) got a very faint line on day 5 then it just wasn't getting any stronger - by day 9 it was a tiny bit but really not much so I was convinced it was a chemical. Went in for bloods on day 11 and my HCG was 400..... the clinic said it was a bit low for day 11, so went back on actual OTD day 14 and it was 1512.

So please don't worry too much about what the line looks like. It's really early for anything to be super strong.

Remember that HCG doubles every 48 hours and that last test looks stronger to me. Those lines are much stronger than mine were anyway!

You've got this xx

Thanks, This is giving me some hope. Hope to see my line getting darker. I am so worried this time as this is my last embryo.😭

I was so worried that there is no line progression on today's test

It's hard when you test daily as there will be some fluxuation but I would only really focus on tests done 48 hours apart, or ideally more as that's where you want to see progression.

I've had a chemical pregnancy so totally know how anxiety inducing it is looking at line progression, but when I had my CP it started getting lighter after a few days.

All you can do is wait and test again to see, or ask your clinic for a blood test. And just remember, this is out of your control - if it's a healthy embryo it will develop, and if it's not then sadly you can't change that. So be kind to yourself. x
