Do any of you ladies have experience with these? I just got a 2-3 weeks result this morning. Should be 5+3 today. Really worried. No other symptoms. MC last year and finding this really difficult. Thanks x

Hi Hun. Please remember than CBD are not 100% accurate, and the instructions say that the 2-3 weeks result is the least accurate. Levels of hCG vary greatly- take a look at the chart on this website:

I can understand why you are so worried. I have had an ectopic and an MC myself so I know how scary it is- remember than every pregnancy is different and you are actually more likely to experience a healthy pregnancy this time than MC again

Is this the first CBD you have done? Of have you gotten 1-2 weeks on one before?

Best of luck xxx

It's the first one I've taken. I just wanted a little reassurance due to lack of symptoms but it has just made me worse. Thanks for your reply xx

I did a cbd the day after a cheapie & superdrug own when I was 13dpo & got 2-3 as well. This threw me slightly as I had expected 1-2. I never did anymore because of previous chemical pregnancies I didn't want added worry if it didn't match my dates. I agree with kimmy though, the levels can change so much & at different times with different people. It could also be that you ovulated a few days later than you think, making you 5wks and not 5 + 3.
Try not to worry, thought I know thats far easier to say than to do, and i'm sure your symptoms will start soon.
Good luck x x

I have read that CBD 2-3 weeks is up to 2000miu hcg. So you could be, say 1500miu today, then tomorrow or Sun you could shoot up to 3000miu and get 3+. It will literally change that quickly for you xx

PLEASE don't worry. I would never buy another of these tests again, I kept having 1-2 weeks mark and it wouldn't go up, I freaked myself so much I ended up paying for HCG tests....I really think they should stop making these test, they are extremely unreliable, give you worries you don't need, especially at the beggining of your pregnancy!! All the test mean is that you are pregnant, so huge congratulations!!

if your taking the 5weeks pregnant with the last day of your period,then the 2-3wks will be right becouse you will add 2weeks to the 2-3wks,so will make you 5weeks pregnant,the test will only measure your hcg and since you have been pregnant for only 2-3weeks then this will make it right (i really hope this makes sence,it does in my head :lol: )

and agree,dont take no notice,every pregnancy is different and hcg will rise different too

Good luck to you all, Tracy xx

Im sure this is fine and its a good result - means you have a stong hormone for it to pick up 2-3 and not 1-2. You could do another one tomorrow and it say 3+, just depends on the pee and when you did it. Also, different women have different levels of hormone, hence why some women dont even show a positive til 6-7weeks!! With my 1st i didnt get even a faint positive until i was on cd35 whereas this time i got a strong positive at the samne stage! yet both my 12week scans put my dates back abit AND it was same brand test! work that one out!!!

Congrats on the pregnancy and dont do anymore tests, you dont need the worry. Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy!!

Yes, don't forget the number of weeks on the CBD is since conception, not how many weeks pregnant you are.
