Clear Blue with weeks estimator. If you have used one please read!

in 1st Trimester
Has anyone used one of these? I am neurotic already and these things are making me more so. I took the first one when I was 4w 2d and and it correctly showed between 1-2 weeks pregnant. I took another one at 5 weeks and it said 2-3 weeks. So my neurotic self took another one at 5w 5d and it still says 2-3 weeks. I know I am over 3 weeks since ovulation so according to the directions it should say 3+ weeks. For what it's worth it almost immediately said "Pregnant" (like 30 seconds or less) but the weeks thing is freaking me out. Thank you for any input!

    The weeks estimation is based on average hcg levels.  If your pee is diluted or you just don't produce as much as the next girl it will be a little off.  It's not like you're 7 weeks and it's saying 1-2.  Take a few deep breaths and try to stop freaking out.

    I have used them and it says 3+.  My pee was not diluted.  Don't worry.

    I took this test when I just missed my period and it said 1-2 weeks. To be honest this is the exact reason I didn't take the second test in the box. I didn't want any additional reasons to worry. Repeat betas drawn by your Dr will be way more telling than POAS. I know it's hard but try not to worry.

    I took one when I got my first double line on a FRER and it said 1-2 (I was just about 3 weeks). Took the 2nd one Monday and it said 2-3 and I was almost 4 weeks.

    Your pee can affect it.

    The directions actually have a table that say what the result is compared to what your doctor will probably estimate. Mine was pretty on.

    Doctors don't typically do betas unless there's a history of loss or the OP was going through fertility treatments.

    Thank you everyone. I am going to stop obsessing and move on. I feel pregnant and unless something happens to lead me to believe otherwise I will just go with it!
