Clear blue tests

Hey I was wondering is it possible that a clear blue tests shows a false negative? As I have done 5 other tests and they all said I was positive but those were cheaper ones so I don't know if that affects it also the fact that on the 5 other tests the second lines were all faint but they all appeared within the time limit

If your getting faint positives chances are there’s not enough HCG for the digital to pick up, they aren’t as sensitive as other tests

Five positive test says you are in a few days a digi should give you a positive as well, is How late are you?

Look on the tests you have been using, you’ll see the sensitivity a number followed by mIU/ml the higher the number the less sensitive so 10 mIU/ml is more sensitive than 25mIU/ml. At two weeks late you should be getting quite strong positives as well as a positive on a digi, good luck

Clear blue aren't that sensitive, however being 2 weeks late you should get a positive on a clear blue. I was only 2 days late and had positives with the clear blue digi tests.
Good luck though 😊 xx
