Us infertile girls often talk in a lot of jargon. Even our husbands can be clueless at times. There’s abbreviations and medical terms that seem so foreign to those not personally affected by infertility.
Can you translate?
This girl is PUPO! Whoop whoop! One embaby is on board hopefully burrowing into his/her home for the next 9 months. Once the 2ww is over, I’ll have a beta done to see if the FET was successful.
How’d you do?
PUPO: pregnant until proven otherwise
Embaby: embryo
2ww: 2 week wait (the wait between transfer and a beta test)
Beta: bloodwork to test for beta levels (the pregnancy hormone)
FET: Frozen Embryo Transfer (the placement of a thawed embryo into the uterus)
***Also, still confused about a part of the embryo adoption process? Or the medical part? Leave us questions you have below or PM us/the page, if you feel more comfortable. The next 2 weeks are going to be relatively uneventful, so we want to fill it by answering YOUR questions! All questions will be answered anonymously and there’s almost no question we won’t answer 👀👀👀***
