2ww

[Ems83]

I when do you start counting you 2ww from ?????? Ec or ET? My test date at clinic is 30th August but that's not 14days since ET! ! Another question (might be a silly one) should I be ok to sleep on my stomach in 2ww or am I better not to??

2ww is from ET. It's called the 2ww although different clinics advice different dates to test. Yours seems to be 11 days after transfer that you'll test which I've seen a lot of clinics do. My 2ww is actually 9 days because my clinic do a blood test. You should be fine to lie on your stomach and your embryo will be well protected inside you so try and not worry 🙂 Xxx

Hey my 2WW started from EC, my OTD was 16 days from that date but as Amanda says it is different for every clinic (my clinic never once mentioned the term 2 week wait, that's just a common term). You should be fine to sleep on your stomach but mine was achy up to week 7 when I lay on it so I didn't just because of that. You might be OK with it though xx

Hi Ems83. 2 weeks from embryo transfer. Some test after 10 days if it was a blastocyst transfer. Sleeping on your front is OK. Good luck! Diane
