Clear blue digital still showing 1-2 weeks

[Pmawarrior]

Hi all

I am now on 14dp5dt but fiest thing yesterday i did another clear blue digital and still showing 1-2 weeks. Ive heard this is about right to still be showing this which is confusing as i am over 4 weeks pregnant apparantly with the ivf..

I am hoping if i do another in a few days it will jump to 2-3 weeks. Just wondering if anyone else has had this and can put my mind at ease?

TIA x

These tests are just awful for inducing anxiety. They are quite inaccurate. HCG isn't as linear as the number of days/weeks and is also a lot weaker via urine than blood for example. I would step away from the tests if I were you. Congrats on your pregnancy! x

Good piece of advice. I promised myself i would be its very addictive isnt it. I just want to see progression and not seeing much on the lines neither although i am still feeling the cramps in pelvis and uterus. Nothing too painful just feels like stretching or pulling. Ive not had an severe cramps or bleeding which may suggest worst case scenario wouldnt it? X

mine did this, he is 4 years old now. I refused to use these with my second in the end x

Really? What about the dye tests ? Mine dont seem to be budging much 😬 x

Remember they only alter every 48 hours and when your past the 14 days you should already have your strong two lines so testing after this is just going to hurt your eyes comparing and any faintness will send you crazy. My best advice, after coming out the other side, no more tests, wait until your scan ❤️ I took my own advice for my second ivf baby and the aniexty was a little less xx

clearblue weeks indicator are band in the US and this is one of the reasons why. Even when my HCG was over 6,000 I was still only showing 2-3 weeks. Please step away from this way to track progress. Only real accurate way is to have a blood test. Congrats on your positive.

Guidance says that clear blue digitals won't show 2-3 weeks until HCG is over 153 but remember that detecting HCG levels is so inaccurate via urine. Have you had your HCG blood test yet? I'd hold off on stressing until that. Make sure you get a repeat blood test done within a few days to show HCG is increasing.

This happened me recently...clear blue took ages to progress to 3+ weeks even though my HCG was 1083 on my first blood test. My pregnancy is still progressing and we are almost ready for first scan. Hopefully things will become clearer dor you soon. Please try not to worry and, from someone who has obsessed over tests for ages, it does your stress levels no good whatsoever. Try to trust your body...you're doing brilliantly as is!

trying again in a few days is a good idea and maybe try the afternoon mine was always stronger then xx

those tests are rubbish! They’re not sensitive at all. They’re notorious for staying on 1-2 weeks for ages and stressing people out when you’ll get a strong dark line on first response. I remember once getting strong BFP on 3 different makes and still BFN on those tests. Please disregard. I stopped buying them x

I my case those tests were absolutely accurate. The pregnancy where it stayed 1-2 weeks ended in miscarriage, and the two pregnancies where it did progress to 2-3 and then 3+ both ended with live birth. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
