I've had 8 positive pregnancy tests but, the line stopped getting darker.. should that mean i'm not having a healthy pregnancy?

No: A positive pregnancy test is like a light switch. It is either on(positive) or off(negative). Nothing else can be connoted about the status of the pregnancy other than that.
