I learnt a very hard lesson with dd2- you seriously cannot judge hcg levels by the darkness of a pregnancy test!! I panicked for a couple of weeks about my tests and and 1 point the tests were exactly the same colour but hcg showed over 1000 increase!

Above is a link to my journal do if you want to look at mine feel free!
Good luck and I really think your tests look great x
I too am having this exact same issue. I am 5 weeks today and my ic are not getting any darker and when I have done FRER they weren't getting darker either. Feeling numb right now.
Hoping Girl, the test you took today @15 DPO looks a little bit darker than your 13 DPO test. Honestly, you arent going to see very much progression if you take the tests everyday, trust me, I was obsessed. I found that if I took the tests every other day, to give my HCG 48 hrs to double, then i would see i difference in the tests. But I couldnt see any difference on tests that I took every single day, sometimes more than once a day. With my first pregnancy in Nov, I miscarryed @5 weeks, and my lines were all very light, but they did show minor progression every 2 days. Your tests look much darker than mine were when i miscarried. Of course...I immediately got pregnant again, and now have a happy wiggly 9 weeks baby growing (saw it wiggling on a scan yesterday). I hope everything works out for you!
Honestly it makes no difference what so ever. With my last pregnancy my tests were getting lovely and dark and progressing fine and i still MC a week later. Progression or lack of progression doesnt not determine your pregnancy.
Im trying myself not to keep testing too though.

You're right.... I'm glad I've not got any more tests...

Its really really hard but enjoy your pregnancy. I keep telling myself that im pregnant today and ill enjoy today and thats all that matters. I'd lie if i said i was panicked too though.
