What DPO did you get 1-2, 2-3 and 3+ on Clearblue?

Just curious, know they’re not an exact science. I got 1-2 at 9dpo and now I’m 14dpo wondering if I will get 2-3 today.

I mean this in the kindest possible way because I have been there.... Put the tests down. Those things are so unreliable and anxiety inducing. Going up to 2-3 weeks or not doesn't mean anything. Plus they are bloody expensive. By time I'd paid for all the pregnancy tests I took I could have paid for a private scan. 🧡

Yes to all of the above. Those tests are awful. I literally never got a 3+ but a HCG blood test the next day showed I was way over the supposed threshold. The reality is that HCG for a viable pregnancy has a massive range and it's not possible for a test to track that accurately. The only way HCG can be meaningful is by testing it in your blood at intervals to track the doubling time. As this is not routinely done in the UK your best bet is to wait it out and get an early scan. Hope things work out well for you but please trust me those tests are not going to do anything for you x

I went for a private scan and the sonographer told me those Clearblue weeks indicator tests are 'the work of the devil!' apparently they are wildly inaccurate and cause a lot of unnecessary anxiety. Best way to know if pregnancy is progressing is HCG tests 48 hours apart and an early viability scan.
