Did anyone's clearblue conception indicator stay at 1-2 weeks for ages?

[Loobyloo30]

I first got a bfp at 12/13 dpo (very faint) at 4 weeks I got 1-2 weeks on clearblue, and at 4+5 weeks it still said 1-2. Did anyone else's do this?? My bfp's now are really dark but I daren't do another digi!!! Xx

Hi, mine was sort of the same. Did first test on a normal test at 3w 6d & got faint line. Wasnt expecting it to be positive as had decided enough was enough & was gonna have the coil fitted within the next month but had been on a 7 mile walk and really struggled. Later that night I did a digital & got 1-2. I then left it 5 days & tested again & still got a 1-2 which would have put me at 4w 4d. I was starting to think it would be another chemical . 2 days later still 1-2 I was gutted. I was going on holiday in a few days so left it 2 more days again & used my last test & finally got my 2-3 by this time I was over 5 weeks & should have been getting 3+. I didn't test again after that & went on holiday trying to put it to the back of my mind (we all know that never really works but I tried). When I got back off holiday I booked an early scan at what should be 7w3d and I was bang on date with a lovely heartbeat. I guess all our levels are different for lady to lady. So many lady's have negative things to say about the digital test. Just don't trust them. X

Wow!! I bet you were going out of your mind!! Thank you so much for replying and giving me hope! My lines are super dark now so hoping its a good sign! I've just read so many horror stories about the digi only staying at 1-2 weeks and then the poor girls miscarried xx

They really are not good. I'm now just over 33weeks & due Xmas eve. I refused to buy them again so never got my 3+ with them & as your lines are getting darker on other tests that's gotta be good. X

 

[Loobyloo30]

Awww congrats!! I've got a scan booked for a weeks time! Can't wait!! This wil be the longest week ever xx

Mines been stuck at 2-3 but I'm too nervous to buy more!! Really want to but trying to use self control.... Gahhh

 

[Loobyloo30]

I'm 2-3 now too! Finally went up yesterday! Still worried though as it took so long. How long have you been getting 2-3?

i was getting faint positives from 9dpo on £1 shop tests, but 10dpo and 11dpo digi said a big fat NOT PREGNANT. then i tested 13dpo and got 1-2 and tested with a test left over couple of hours ago ( 15dpo) and got my 2-3 phew.... not going to test again now. its very stressful i had that last pregnancy when it didnt change from 2-3 or 3+ for ages. but i now have a healthy 4 month old son from it. the internet has so many scary stories...... try not to read into them lol x

 

[Loobyloo30]

So stressful isn't it!! Can't wait for my scan next week! I think clearblue prey on the vulnerable with these conception indicators!

 

[Celesse]

yes, cos no one uses them to see how pregnant they are. Everyone just buys them to see if the hormones say they are as pergnant as they think they are.

hi looby loo ive had the same I did one at 4 weeks and got 1-2 then did one at 5 weeks and got 1-2 still I too have been going out of my mind do you have any symptons? how far along are you

 

[Loobyloo30]

It's horrible isn't it!! I managed to get 2-3 yesterday at 5+2 weeks, but I had the 1-2 for 6 days!!i don't have many symptoms either! Slight nausea, twinges and cramps, plus I'm tired but nothing major

 

[kelly1973]

same as me im too scared to do another what day is your scan id you book it your self

 

[Loobyloo30]

I daren't do another now either as I'll stress it's not 3+ my scan is on Wednesday!! I'll be 6+1 that day.

No I looked into private scans but they're a fortune so went to my docs and explained, so he referred me to the early pregnancy unit.

They are not 100% accurate, i wouldn't rely on them.

Everybody's hcg levels are so different. I honestly have a love hate relationship with those tests. I love the fact that they can help you kind of see at home that your hcg levels are going up, but they can be very misleading as well. I got a 2-3 week reading at only 14 dpo. My levels have just risen quickly, but that is why hcg levels are not an accurate way to date a pregnancy. My levels have been going up every 24 to 29 hours, but I have friends who had levels that didnt rise but every 72 hours, which is normal. You could just be in that 72 hour range. Don't stress it. I had a previous MC and I admit I have been very nervous about having another one, but I am trying to stay positive, just try to do the same thing.

 

[shortnstumpy]

Mine were opposite. I tested and got 1-2 weeks. 3 days later it jumped up to 3+ weeks. I wouldn't put too much faith in the weeks indicator

 

[Loobyloo30]

Thanks ladies! I've read so many posts that say the tests are inaccurate but I've read loads that ended in mc too with my chemical pregnancy bfp stayed so faint so I'm a little bit more hopefull with this beany as bfp is darker than the control line. When pregnant with my son though I got 3+ at 4w 3 days!!!

Just wanted to update - all is ok with baby! (im 19 weeks now) so sometimes, the fact CB digital takes a while to increase is perfectly normal!!
