Fainter positive today then yesterday?

I took a test yesterday (26th September) and took one today. Today’s positive line is lighter than yesterday’s. Both tests were took with my first urine of the day. Is it possible that it’s because they’re different branded tests (yesterdays is an ultra early test, todays is a early detection test) I’m absolutely petrified that I am having another chemical pregnancy ( I suffered with one in December 2022) as I’ve started to have a light pink bleed when I wipe (nothing is in my pants as of yet, I will attach a photo below of the tissue) Has anyone had anything similar with similar with a story that has a happy ending? I’m going out of my mind and thinking the worst. I’m going to retest in 48hours with the same branded test as today. Any advice will be taken all on board. EDIT: I’m not too sure what date I ovulated so I couldn’t even ask if the colour of the line is strong enough for the date I ovulated.

Can't compare when they're different brands. And also can't compare when one of them is fresh and the other well over the time frame. Early pregnancy bleeding is very common and doesn't necessarily mean the worst.

Different brands can’t be compared x I did have episodes of spotting both pregnancy but this is different for everyone x

@Em @Charley thankyou so much for your responses. I wasn’t aware that you can’t compare with different tests! Eases my mind just a little. I never had any bleeding with my first earth baby, I’ve only bled when having my chemical pregnancy, hence why I am so on edge! @Em did you ever have red blood in your bleeds as this is how mine was as I wiped half hour ago, as I say I’ve only ever bled with my chemical and it’s now made me freak out. I’m trying to do some research however everything is telling me different things. Do you have any advice or is there anything I should know/do? X

Definitely test again with the same brands to compare. I had bleeding with more than one pregnancy, and all was ok, and I've also had several chemicals, so I totally understand your worries.

@Susan would you suggest taking another test in the morning or on Sunday morning? I just want the most accurate reading? I think because of never bleeding with my earth baby, this is just bringing flash backs back from my chemical and it’s making me overthink a lot, I just want to know what’s going on. I have requested for my bloods to be done by the doctors to check my hcg levels, but they haven’t got back to me today. I’m hoping my body tells me before Monday otherwise I’ll have to contact them again!

@Susan also may I ask how much blood I should be loosing for it to still be classed as implantation? And how long does it last if there is a time period?
