CB 'how many weeks' test scaring me...

[peaky297]

So I am now 6+1 from last period or 5+5 if I count from when I believe I ovulated (as I think I ovulated late). I had a 2-3 weeks on clear blue a week ago and expected it to now be 3+, but I did one this morning with fmu and it was still 2-3. Should I be concerned!?

Please stop POAS. It's clearly stressing you out. The tests are an indicator, not a set in stone guide.

They’re really not reliable as a guide since hcg levels are so variable.

Your dates don’t make much sense to me - do you have very short cycles? Do you think you ovulated three days into your period? Sorry if I’m missing something, Brain not on top form today.

Regardless, the dates on digitals go by the length of time from conception, so will always be less than the date from your last period, usually two weeks for most women but this varies.

Sorry I was a bit unclear... my cycles are actually a bit long! So if counting as if I have a perfect cycle ovulating at day 14 I would be 6+1, but I know that I ovulated late on day 18, which would make me 5+5. Make sense?

@peaky297 2-3 means 2-3 week since ovulation which means 4-5 weeks pregnant, so if your 5 weeks pregnant it wont say 3+ yet as that is 6 weeks+

The brackets they use for HCG levels week by week are a very rough guide and won't be accurate for everyone - don't drive yourself crazy!
