So my lmp was 11th September.. which would mate me now 6+2 but clear blue says 1-2 which means 3-4 and I had a bfn at the doctors on 7th October.. anyone else has this or something similar? I'm confused x

Clearblue are to be trusted for detecting pregnancy, the weeks indicator I think it’s more for fun.

You could have ovulated later than you think so the dates would match up. Those CB weeks indicators should be banned. They're a gimmick not an accurate way to date a pregnancy.

You could Book a private scan in few weeks to see how far along you are.

Diluted wee can cause the weeks thing to be off or overly concentrated wee too. It’s just a guesstimate, like it’d be liable to say 4+ earlier with twins because there’s more hcg.

LMP only tells you when your cycle started. Two women can start their period on the same day and one ovulate 9 days later, the other ovulate 30 days later. They would have the same LMP date but have due dates 3 weeks apart because of when conception actually occurred.

Yep according to lmp when I found out I was 14 weeks when infact I was only 9 weeks... ovulation probally happened later than you think x
