I took a couple tests yesterday and all were bfp! But they were pretty faint. I was 15 - 16 dpo- shouldn't they have been dark BFP's? Even went to to the doctor yesterday and that was also bfp but she said it wasnt real dark. I didn't test this morning but plan to again tomorrow. Should they be darker tomorrow? Should I worry since they aren't dark BFP's now? I will try to post a pic or two of my tests from yesterday.

Congrats! Positive is a positive! Pretty decent line IMO.
 
I got my first positive 17 dpo and it was so faint I thought I was tricking myself. I promptly took 3 more tests, all faint. The next day was a bit darker. I wouldn't put too much thought into it. I would however, encourage you to ask your doctor to do some blood tests. That wait for the first doctor's appt. makes the two week wait look like a cake walk. :)
 
Thanks girls! That makes me feel better. I go in for my first appointment next week! So excited!

This is what the tests looked like after they sat for a little bit. Definitely a lot darker- I just didn't know if it was "valid" then.
 
As long as it's positive it's valid ;)
 
mine got darker than the control line but as my pregnancy progressed, they got lighter and lighter and its because home pregnancy tests are made to pick up a certain range of hcg and mine was way too high and actually knocked the test out of whack. my lines are now really faint because the test is so overwhelmed but baby is definitely perfect and healthy!
 
I never got a dark positive this time. I was using IC though, but I saw progression in how fast the line came in and the line did get darker.

That is reassuring! I am testing again in the a.m to see if it got any darker. It will be 48 hours since I took the first 2 at home. I'm just trying to find comfort that I did get 3 BFP's yesterday and I definitely "feel" pregnant! Super bloated, a hint of nausea a couple times today, and I get tired out of no where! Lol hopefully that's all normal! I'm only 4w 3d
 
I used those exact same tests! Walmart $.88! Mine did get dark, but not until a week or so after my first faint positive
 
Just took another test and it is definitely darker then it was 48 hours ago lol. :) So happy and relieved!

The top pic is from my bfp Tuesday. And the bottom is from this morning.
