Opening a Clearblue Early Digital

8 replies

Hi everyone,

I recently had a CP, and took a multitude of different tests when I first found it. I did 2 Clearblue early digitals which were both positive.

For some reason I decided to open them now (a week later) and can only see one blue line on both, despite them both reading 'Positive'.

Can anyone shed any light on this? I'm fairly sure for the short time I was pregnant as all the tests were positive.

Mind sharing a picture?

I didn't take a photo sorry. Here are my tests that I did (not including some other brands)

Sorry for your loss OP.
The CB digitals work differently to normal strip tests. There's 3 lines and they aren't interpreted the same way as non digital.
I've seen many different people compare them and it's hard to say exactly how they work line wise, but you're not meant to go by the lines on them.
Best of luck with your journey xx

What's the likelihood of a CB digital giving a false positive? I know I'm overthinking it now but

I’ve never seen a digital give false positive. Why does it matter? You had lines on 12 and 14 dpo.

I don't know, it doesn't matter at all. I suffer with severe anxiety and now it's been a week I'm overthinking everything that happened, even though I know I WAS pregnant until I wasn't, I'm doubting everything.

As far as I understand, CB digitals need more HCG than your average strip test. So very unlikely to be a false positive. So yes, you definitely were pregnant❤️ A loss is devastating no matter how early. So feel what you need to feel and be gentle with yourself as you process x

The CB digitals I did were the early detection ones, so it doesn't have the weeks indicator just shows pregnant or not pregnant. Sorry it wouldn't let me reply to your latest comment for some reason so I have replied here ❤️
