Last weekend I was 4 weeks, digital said 1-2 as expected. Today I’m 5 weeks but the digital has skipped straight to 3+. Don’t get me wrong that’s great, but any ideas why? My first pregnancy (mc) I did a digital at 5 weeks and it read 1-2. I feel like I’m getting twin vibes 😆😂 👶🏼👶🏼

I’m pretty sure I have some form of this but looks different to what I’ve seen online. When people talk about 2 or 3 finger gap etc I don’t understand it?
