how long does it take to get darker? ICs

[tonyamanda]

HI girls!!! about 4 days ago i got a really really super faint on a internet cheapie.. I put my image on the gallery.. since then it has gotten darker but only a tiny bit.. its not dark enough for my to really be sure.. the really really faint lines come up before the 10 minute time limit.. I have no idea when my AF is due cause 42 days ago i had my implanon out.. I bought some Frers from an online chemist but im still waiting for them.. I know hcg doubles every 36 hours or so.. if it IS a faint positive should it show up proper by the end of the week maybe?..
ill test with my Frers as soon as i get them..

I would test every other day and you should see the lines getting alot darker. The ic are always pretty faint to begin with. The best test for lines early on I have found is the First Response.

This was my ic two days after AF was due

Mine are still faint.. and I mean really faint, to the point where you have to look at it in good light... But are slowly slowly getting a slightly bit darker. I got a positive on a frer three days ago after getting faint IC's for 2 days. I've heard that the IC's don't get really dark until you're past when your af was due. x

thankyou.. I think i posted in your thread in the TTC.. I can't wait for my Frers to arrive in the mail hopefully i get them before friday.. or by then im hopeing they are a little darker.. i thought iwas seeing evaps but today i took a photo within 5 minutes and i saw pink.. faint but pink.. oh well ill just have to wait.. and cause i have no idea when my AF is due cause i just came off my iplant 43 days ago.. im guessing i should have it by now.. oh well

When i took my internet cheapie the line was so faitnt you could only see it standing at a window, and the camera couldnt take a picture as it just wouldnt show on the photo.

I took a normal CB test a few days later and it was positive. just for good measure, i took another cheapie and it was still pathetically faint.

my ICs only started getting darker when I was about 6 days late, and they are stll not as dark as Traceys - ooo am worried now.

This sounds like this same thing I'm currently going through.
I've been getting faint + with my IC for 4 days now and they're SLOWLY getting darker, but the camera can't pick up the lightness. I can see it holding it under the light or really studying it. Thinking within a couple days, I'm getting my digital test because I can't STAND these IC!! The evaporated ones are seriously darker then the positives!! NEVER again will I buy the IC!!

Good luck, please up date =)

I'm 20 DPO and mine are only now getting decently dark. I got my first + on one at 13 DPO, which was 5 days after every other brand!

Now they seem to have maxed out. I don't have any more and I'm glad to be rid of them so I can quit worrying.
