13dpo slightly lighter than 12dpo on frer

[Alb123]

I had a chemical at 6 weeks and a 10 week mc ( and 12 months ttc gah) before my son and this is our second cycle ttc #2. I got a bfp really early on ics ( dpo 8). I took a frer yesterday after a 3 hour hold and the line was nice and dark but then today fmu is slightly lighter. Is there any hope?
Top is 13 dpo, bottom 12 dpo

Hi I asked this for My Friend who isnt on BnB and they all said not too go off the Test's as it can be Lack of water intake/more fluids x

To be honest Hun they look exactly the same. I understand the worry after losses but I would only count it as a bad sign if the line is significantly lighter. Slight differences are usually just down to urine concentrations. Try and relax, sure your little bean is just fine!

Thanks for the reassurance. I just took an ic and it also seems lighter than yesterday. But I actually dipped two and they came up different shades so I don't know what to think except that ics suck and I'd rather go broke buying frers than mess with tests with such variation in dye content.

Go with a week estimator digi.

Thanks.... I have 1 more frer so I'll try that tomorrow first. Really hope it's darker and I can just not test anymore at all !

Alb-I wouldn't worry day to day, hcg only doubles every 48-72 hours so see the difference between two days tests and go from there. Although keep in mind that all tests are going to vary and so is your urine. I could never get a digi to say 3+ weeks for me even though my hcg was way above what it should have been to read 3+. So I would call your dr and get in for bloods and go off of that. I have been there and understand exactly where you are coming from. Fx this is your rainbow. Congrats.

FRER can be a bit funny for progression at that stage, don't worry one bit! I bet in a day or two it's darker than the control!
