6.5 weeks pregnant but 2-3 on clearblue

I have just taken a clearblue pregnancy test. My period started about 9th June so I should be around 7 weeks pregnant.

I have a positive test yesterday so did a weeks indicator test today expecting 3+ weeks.

It's come up as 'pregnant 2-3 weeks' so my hcg must be so low for this result.

Im thinking this isn't a viable pregnancy....

The clear blue tests are notoriously unreliable. Stop testing.

This does seem way off what my hcg should be. I should be well over the level for 3+ weeks by now.

Its hard as I've had a mc in the past

Please stop testing. You won't do yourself any good. The clear blue week prediction tests are not reliable.

Honestly, if you can afford it then I would pay for an early scan which is the only way you’ll know for sure. This happened to me (never got to 3+ despite categorically being over 7 weeks, having got 3+ in previous pregnancies at the same point) and in my case it was a missed miscarriage unfortunately. However, as others have said, the tests aren’t necessarily accurate and I was driving myself spare with the uncertainty

At 6 weeks stop using urine test. Only reliable one is hcg blood test and scan. At 6-7 weeks you should be able to see heartbeat.

I got a 1-2 test on 27th July. And then same again on 29th July. On 28th Sept (so exactly 9 weeks later from first test) I was scanned and found to be 13+6. Which means that I was 4+6 and then 5+1 when it told me I was 1-2.

We have gone over dates and think I am 3+5 in terms of conception date but test saying 2-3 weeks

I need to step away but its not looking great. I have a history of miscarriages so very difficult to get excited

@Roofroofroof could you book an early scan?
I don't think those tests are super reliable but totally understand your feelings.
