CB digi HPTs

I probably should be posting this in the TTC or pregnancy forums (but can't cos I'm avoiding those like the plague) but just wondered, the Clearblue digi tests that actually tell you how many weeks pregnant you are, what is the maximum number of weeks they go up to? I'm just assuming they are for use in early pregnancy and I've only seen people with 2-3 weeks pregnant on them. Wondered if they worked much further on? Obviously I'm not pregnant yet (impossible, haven't had sex yet!!) but I'm just wondering because if I did get pregnant this month because I wouldn't know how far gone I am. Also, when they tell you how far pregnant you are, does that detect how old the baby is, or how far from conception? Sorry, that sounds confusing, but when you are pregnant, they take it from your last period and for around 2 of those weeks you aren't actually pregnant, so even though you might be 4 weeks pregnant, the baby is actually only 2 weeks old. Hope that makes sense!!!

I think its 3+wks they go up to hun

and its timed from conception but i doubt they'd be very reliable on a first cycle after a miscarriage x

Hi they only go upto 3+ and that is from conception so a dr would put you down as 5+ weeks . hope that makes sense.

I would add I have used them a lot now, shockingly, but I have found them pretty accurate and on the ball, didn't want to believe them with all the hype. I had a mc last month too, going by opks when I ovulated , the tests have been spot on each week.
