When to expect 2-3 on Clearblue test

Currently 16dpo. Have been testing positive since 10dpo, but still getting 1-2 weeks on the Clearblue weeks indicator. This is making me nervous as I would have expected 2-3 by now. In my previous pregnancies I hit the 2-3 around 14 dpo. Would anyone else want to share when their tests when from 1-2 to 2-3? Thanks

Hi @LoulouBranflake, I got 2-3 at 16 DPO, then 3+ at 20 DPO.

But take with caution as I then got 2-3 at 24 DPO and 3+ the same day, after a panic and convincing myself it was another loss.

the pregnancy before never moved past 1-2 weeks even at 6 weeks, so I knew something was off.

But Im approaching 19 weeks with a girl as I type so hopefully this is my time and my rainbow! 🌈

fingers crossed all works out for you. As I’ve read countless times, the test result won’t change the outcome and there is a reason those week indicator ones are band in some countries! But we all are guilty of line progression testing, me included!

all the best xx

I got 1-2 at 9DPO, 2-3 at 16DPO (was 1-2 at 14DPO) and 3+ at 21DPO. In previous pregnancies that turned to losses I never tested post 2-3 so unsure how different progression was for those. I think generally a week between each is a good rule of thumb BUT it also depends on urine concentration. With the 3+ I got a 2-3 in the morning with first urine and 3+ in the evening when my urine was more concentrated than my FMU.

Thanks both. Hoping I’ll see the 2-3 tomorrow 🤞🏻

How did you get on @LoulouBranflake? I’m 5 weeks pregnant tomorrow. I have a weeks indicator test so going to use it mid next week to make sure it’s as accurate as it will get. Tested with one yesterday and it was 2-3 weeks. I want to make sure I am well over the mark to make sure it doesn’t cause unnecessary anxiety! Which testing does anyway!! 🙄🙄🥴🥴😂 xx

Finally got the 2-3 on the Clearblue today. So I’m going to wait a week before doing another. It sends my anxiety haywire! Congratulations xx

I bet that’s a relief for you! Yes, probably better we don’t do these things to ourselves though isn’t it! 🥴

I got 2-3 at 6+ weeks. Is that 28? It really shook me up. Never got 3+ but he's 15 months and very healthy. Don't think they're accurate in every case.
