78 
16DPO FMU
Looks way better than the $ store one but It's not as dark as I'd think it would be at 16dpo but atleast it is dark

WIth my first pregnancy, all my lines were light and didn't get darker until around 18dpo. Turns out I had a bean that snuggled in later than normal (I did IVF so my dates were not wrong) and just took longer to start growing. FXed that your lines darken up soon!

Well my test lines before this were pretty dark on my Answer test but the $ one I can't seem to get a dark line on. I'm hoping it's just the test.

That still looks like a pretty good line to me. You used Answer on your first tests though didn't you? I wonder if you took another one of those if it would be darker.

Well shoot! I bet it is just the test!! None of my lines were dark....FRER, Answer, ICs, EPTs...none of them. I bet you are absolutely fine and it is just those tests that suck

I'd try an Answer before getting worried. Before my loss my doctor told me the same thing as KMH, that some women's babies just take longer to snuggle in. If you're worried, I'd insist on betas. The doubling is what my doctor was more concerned about. I hope everything is just fine and you just have a bad test!

I just took my last clearblue digital with very diluted urine and "Pregnant" popped up pretty quickly. I read online they pick up 50mIU and the Baby test I took from dollar general store says they pick up 25mIU. I think I'll just buy some more FRER's.

Clearblue Digital picks up at least 25. I had my hCG tested for my loss and it tested at 26 in my blood and I still got a + on a CBE digital. Just so you know.

Lurking, Ditto on clear blue picking up at 25. It also picks up levels lower than that, mine was 24 the day after I got a + digi. But $ store tests never work well for me even if I have great lines on answer, the $ store test is really faint.

I had a CBE digi pop up "Pregnant" with an HCG of 11.8...they are more sensitive than they advertise!

I would try an Answer or Frer before getting too worried. I would push your doctor to do a beta though if it doesn't start getting darker. I've never personally had much luck with those dollar store tests myself.
