Question

is it a good sign that my positive lines are getting darker? or does that not mean anything?

at first my lines were really light so I didn't really think I was pregnant (these r my first ever BFPs) but now about 5-7 days later they r really dark like as dark as the control line. does this mean anything?

Any line no matter how faint as long as it's not grey and appears in the right time frame is a positive. False positives are very rare especially with pink dye. The lines getting progressively darker is a good sign. It means you are unlikely to have a chemical. Your hcg is going up which means the embryo is growing and developing well. The lines get darker as more hcg enters your system. That's why most tests start light but get darker as days pass.
