Q: Clearblue Easy Digital Plus Weeks

I am 5 weeks 3 days - and I took a clear blue easy digital with weeks today and it is showing on 2-3 weeks a long. I checked the statistics on sensitivity and it shows that the HcG Levels it will detect is between 126 and 2600. At this point I should have well over 2600 in HCG - does anyone have any experience with these that they could share? I'm trying to stay positive - but I have a bad feeling about this.

This post has been useful you me, TTC and 13DPO AF due today well she isn't here yet! and usually i get 2 days warning with very light spotting. Pregnancy tests are all negative. BUT reading some womens posts I'm finding that its quite normal for tests to be negative up until a few days if not a week after missed AF, Thankyou ladies :)

When you concieve you are already 2 weeks preggo, so the test is completely reliable and it doesn't count the extra 2 weeks, so you are right where you should be. Only an ultrasound can really give you a close estimate of gestational age.

Seriously, dont stress it. First off, its a urine test. A lot of factors can alter the outcome of a urine test and they are not comparable to blood levels. That test cannot and will not dictate the viability of the pregnancy, so get the negative thoughts out of ur head!! Second, the tests are shit!! I wasted a tonne of money buying those damn things just so I could see a 3+. I tested right up til 28dpo and held my urine for hours on end just cuz I neeeeeded to see that 3+...NEVER got it. Blood levels at 30dpo were 6,821, there was absolutely no reason why 2 days before I shouldnt have had that 3+...buuut I didnt!! Still very much pregnant...clearblue just has more of my money now. Well played, CB, well played!! =))

Don't forget everyone's levels increase differently so that just like when some gets a bfp on a test but the same brand for someone else might not show positive until a few days after AF was due. There is no exact science behind CBD's week predictions no matter what they say it just uses common averages from a selection on lab tests, if it were precise we wouldn't need dating scans. My sister was 10 days past AF due date before CBD would even say pregnant let alone give her the weeks correctly but at her dating scan little bean was exactly 12weeks so she was right and CBD was wrong.

Pretty sure if you read the instructions it should say 2-3 weeks pregnant actually mean 4-5 weeks when dated by a doctor. You have had a positive pregnancy test, relax and enjoy your moment.

I thought on their website it said 2-3 is 4-5 week pregnant. Because its 2-3 past suspected ovulation
