1st BFP had a nice dark line, 2 days later 2nd BFP was VERY faint

Does this mean I should expect a chemical Pregnancy? I'm a little extra paranoid because this is my first pregnancy after a miscarriage. both were with FMU, same brand of test but from a different package. I am 13 DPO. 

I guess I should be happy that it is still a BFP (though a squinter) but I just cant believe how strong of a line I got that first time! Over analyzing I know, but the first time the pee was def more concentrated because I took it on a day I didn't have to work and had held pee way longer.

That is a hard question. Only time (or blood tests) will be able to tell. I really hope it's not. Fx for you.

It's hard to tell from an HPT alone. As PP's have said a blood draw would be more conclusive. FWIW my wondfo yesterday was so faint it made me slightly nervous, but my betas came back well within the range that should have been more easily detectable on the wondfo than it was. FX for you that it's just a bad test/less concentrated urine or something like that.

Congrats on the positive! I say put away the tests (I know it's hard especially with PGAL brain). Like others have said getting betas done will give you a better indication if your HCG is going up. I'm thinking positive thoughts for you.

Exactly this. My fingers are crossed for you!

I would call your OB and ask for betas.  It's hard to know if the test just had less dye, or if it's a CP.  I hope that it's not and that you get to stick around.  ((((HUGS))))

I just realized that my first (dark line) was actually with SMU not FMU. Too many different variables for me to get worked up about. Will take a digi tomorrow and then stop peeing on sticks lol!  What will be will be no matter what I do, right?

IMO, I would put down the pee sticks (as addictive as they are) and call your dr for betas. Fx that all goes well for you!!! I know PgAl brain is the worst and we over analyze everything! Hang in there!! ((Hugs))
