  It is to suggest how many weeks you are after ovulation. It is not a good indicator of how far you are, since hcg has a wide range of normal.

  Thank God for Raid.

  This. So you basically add 2 weeks to whatever it tells you. It tells you in the directions how to read them.

  It has been quite accurate for me (I've used 1 per week). Apparently the brackets for hcg are 25-200= 1-2 weeks since conception/3-4 weeks preg; 200-2000 = 2-3 weeks since conception/4-5 weeks preg; 2000+ = 3+ weeks since conception/5+ weeks preg. I lined up the days I took them with the average days based on beta base that you would expect to get to the next bracket and it has worked for me.

  i didn't take the clear blue test, but I'm sure if you read the directions, it'll tell you how to read the test.

  And this is why they got pulled from the shelves, because people can't read the instructions...

  I have used clearblue digital tests every time I have been pregnant (1 new pregnancy now, 1 missed miscarriage, 1 ectopic) - They were spot on for me every time.

  The week range is number of weeks since ovulation, so if it says 3+ then you are 5 weeks

  I found out about my pregnancy when I was almost 12 weeks along and the clear blue I took said 3+ weeks when I took it. I knew based on the last time I had a period I was at least 6 weeks and at my dating scan a week later was 12 weeks 4 days. Technically it's correct, as its indicating 3 or more weeks pregnant - I'm pretty sure the instructions indicated that there were only a few options anyway it will only say "1-2", "2-3" or "3+".
