Is a dark early pregnancy test normal

Hello. I took a first response test and it was almost as dark as if not darker than the control line. I took the test on CD 27/30. I also took 2 of the Amazon tests (which came back positive also) I see videos where people are barely able to see their lines. Is it normal mine was dark?
Also I was super exhausted and napping the day before I took the tests. Now I feel normal. Do symptoms come and go? Sorry this is my first time ever seeing a positive test.

Re: Is a dark early pregnancy test normal

  • How many DPO were you? It can be darker if your HCG levels are higher, not necessarily a bad thing. My levels are high this time (4th IVF pregnancy, I have 2 children) and my test was fairly dark on 7dp5dt (12dpo) and beta was pretty high, higher than previous pregnancies. 

    Also, It’s normal for symptoms to come and go, try not to stress about it.

  • Yeah it can be normal. I got my positive CD 25/33. So 8 days early…My tests got dark fast this round.
