Cb digi confusion

I'm currently at 18dpo having for my BFP last week at 11dpo. Did a cb digi today and it coming up as 1-2 weeks pregnant. I would have thought I was more than that. Concerned hcg levels aren't rising... Any advice/help?

Digital pts calculate from
Conception rather than first day of af so if you add on two weeks to the pt you are really 3-4 weeks pg.

I'm sure someone will explain it better than I have. Smile

Congratulations.

They're notoriously inaccurate too!

You've had a BFP - hooray! Thanks

Read the posts above... Now chuck out the terrible, notoriously inaccurate and expensive digis, make your booking appointment & enjoy your pregnancy! How exciting!

Honestly, there will be plenty to worry about (we all do!) over the next 36 weeks without adding anything else into the equation Smile

Thanks LastOne. I am really excited. But I'm also in The Netherlands where things are done very differently. I don't know what to expect. If I was in England I think I'd feel a lot more at ease. Haven't been here long and not even registered at a doctors Confused! Lots to do after holiday season has died down!

GRRR! Fecking CBD should be BANNED!
They are the work of the devil! They can be out by +/- ten days. I've seen more heartache on these boards caused by those flipping things than practically anything else!
If you need to test, go for £1 cheapies and be happy with a line.
I know how hard the first few weeks are, especially as we tend to find out so early nowadays, but you have a BFP. Try and relax and enjoy it before MS kicks in! Wink
