Hi all, I'm loving the feel and information from this site.

Can someone help me understand all the abbreviations?

Hi. Thanks for the help.

I still don't understand the posts that have something like 5dp3dt.

Can you help me understand that?

Hi Muppetgirl. That one is 5 days post 3 day transfer. That means that the embryos were 3 days old at transfer, and it’s now 5 days later. Hope that helps. You’ll get used to them. Diane xx
