HCG level worries

Hello,

My period was late (although it's not the most consistent) so I tested using clear blue weeks indicator and it read pregnant 1-2 weeks, I tested again today (6 days after first test) and it was still 1-2 weeks. I have 2 DS and have had 4 MCs (including MMCs) (3 were between my two successful pregnancies and 1 was after my 2nd DS birth). I feel like this is another MC but looking for anyone who has had similar experience. I didn't use FMU (on either test).

Clearblue digital are notoriously unreliable.
It might mean something, but it might mean nothing. Only a proper blood test, then repeated after 48h would give you a proper response!

Hope everything goes well!

Thanks @ASGIRC I contacted my GP and gave my history and my concern and asked for a referral for a blood test but they said no and I was go through usual notify of pregnancy and wait for midwife appointment. I'll give it a week (as I am travelling with work) and if I don't miscarry, I'll try and get the hospital/midwife to do the test. I'm sure I was told if you have 3 MCs, you can get the HCG blood tests but maybe the rules have changed.
