How many days past transfer till Clear blue 3+

I’m 5 weeks today (hopefully🙏🏼) my clear blue tests still saying 2-3 weeks. How many days after transfer does it take to say 3+? I’m testing like a crazy person to make sure my hcg is rising. What does your hcg need to be at to get 3+?

Hey lovely,

Please don’t stress about those tests, the range for it to trigger the 3+ is really broad. This article explains it really well but basically it can turn from 2100 hcg but isn’t accurate until your over 4000: community.whattoexpect.com/...

With my current pregnancy I didn’t get it until 21 days past transfer so around the six week mark and my first beta was low at 86. With my previous pregnancy, I got 3+ at 10 days past transfer but my first beta was massively higher at 956.

Did you have a beta blood test? X

My clinic doesn’t do them now they said home pregnancy tests r enough but with having so many transfers I wanted to know my bloods of begged my local doctor. They have agreed to do them

10dp5dt bloods 223

12dp5dt. Bloods 484

17dp5dt

19dp5dt

I get my next one tomorrow and Wednesday. I’m trying to hard not to worry it’s torture. Xxx

So you’re 16dp5dt today? Based on your numbers so far, you would be just around the 2000 mark now so not enough to trigger that 3+ yet which is completely normal! If you give it another few days so that your numbers should be over the 4000 threshold, you should see it change x

It feels like a lifetime getting to 12 weeks but it does get a bit easier from there ♥️

If you start getting nausea soon (mine kicked in around six weeks) it’s an awful but reassuring distraction 🤪 xx

Congratulations!

I got 3wks+ at 16dp5dt this time. *But* my HCG was 21,000 at 21dpt so working back it must have been around 5,000. I got 2-3wks at 13dpt which was probably around the 2,000 mark. I think that's a bit ahead but I got positives from 3dpt so it implanted very early. It hasn't made any difference to the size or progression of the foetus shown on scans btw, and it's a singleton. So I think it just shows the HCG range can vary a lot between women and different pregnancies and unless the levels are not really changing every 2-3 days, it's hopefully fine. I would rely on you HCGs going up and not worry too much about the test sticks now x

I was 5 weeks 4 days when clear blue went 3+. I think you’re supposed to add 2 weeks so yours will probably be by the end of the week :)

When did you get the infamous 3+ weeks on Clear Blue?

couple of weeks ago may remember, I've been testing positive since then with encouraging hcg levels...

Clear blue and still showing 2 to 3 weeks

So the clear blue test has still not moved to 3 plus weeks despite now being at 5 weeks and 5 days.
