Hi all,

I'm a little confused...I had egg transfer on the 25th of oct and have been told to test on the 7th but that is only 13 days since the day of transfer and only 12 days if you start counting the day after transfer?

is that right or have my hosp got it wrong? lol

cheers x

That's fine. Whilst it is called the 2ww, each clinic advised different time lines. Good luck xx

It’s the day after. It starts 1dp (one day past then either a 3 day or 5 day transfer of your embryo) 3/5dt. I’ve had 5 day 5 transfers and test day is always 11dp 5dt. Good luck xx

Day 1 is the day after transfer. Lots of hospitals seem to give test days that vary. Good luck!xx

It’s my understanding the day after is day1 xx

Hi,

I just thought i'd message to say that i had my transfer on the 24th and our OTD is also the 7th! Although we have to have a blood test confirmation this time!

ahhh ok so its not really a 2ww is it....thank god lol! long enough though 😩😩 haha! so did your embryos make it to 4 days then?

i had 3 that made it to 5 so im not sure why they have used a poorer quality one first...there must be method in their madness i spose??

Ours is a FET day 5 blast. I have to have bloods as ive had 3 otrivelle (HCg) injections since transfer to hopefully help this one stick!

Im not sure why they would put the 3 day embie back in but i suspect it may be that its likely to do better inside where he belongs rather than freezing and safe the best ones for FET at a later date? just a guess thou!
