Dark lines up until 6 weeks? I need reassurance please!!!

[cskme_]

I have been testing every week to see the progression in my pregnancy tests. They have been dark since 3 days before my missed period. Last week at 5 weeks I tested and the test line was darker than the control line (this I have seen before and apparently is a good sign) this week (6 weeks preg) the test line is more faint then the control line. It is still dark but way lighter then last weeks test. I took the test first thing in the morning, but I did drink a lot of water last night, when I peed this morning it was very light yellow. I don't know if this would change anything, maybe it diluted the HcG a bit? But it WAS my morning pee...
Any thoughts on this? I'm a bit worried.

look up on google "hook effect on pregnancy tests". Your HCG gets so high at this point that the test lines will start to fade. HTH

I looked it up, and took another test diluting my urine, it will still the same. Still a dark line but lighter than last week. I think I need to just stop testing and freaking myself out....

When I was 7 weeks pregnant the doctors thought I had an ectopic...I went to the hospital who made me do a test...the line was barely visible and the doctor said I wouldn't hold out hope...he gave me a scan and there was bean

Where he should be and with a heartbeat...he's now a healthy and happy 3 year old! I'd stop testing lovely. ..or if you're really that worried get to the doctor and explain to them and see what they can do xx

When I was pregnant I had BARELY visible test lines at 7 wks. My HCG was so high it threw the test into crazy mode. I diluted and it was soooooooooo dark. I stopped testing after that cuz it freaked me out but if uu dilute ur urine sample it should darken if it's just high HCG levels. If u r concerned afterward u can go to the Dr to be reassured. I went to the Dr and they told me, without doing any tests, that I would have a normal healthy pregnancy and they were right although I felt mad cuz they didn't check me for anything and still guaranteed me a healthy pregnancy.
