I'm 8dpo. We've been TTCing baby #2 for 2+ years, so I try not to get my hopes up anymore. But I had a very interesting acupuncture appt on Saturday. Last cycle (my first cycle doing acupuncture), all 3 of my appts (pre-ovulation, ovulation, and post-ovulation) were the same - needles in the lower abdomen area, hands, legs, feet, etc. The same thing occurred for the first 2 appts in this cycle. But this past Saturday, for my post-ovulation appt, she felt my pulse and then said that she wasn't going to put any needles in my abdomen - she said "we don't know what's going on in there, so I just want to keep things quiet". And then she said "sometimes I'll put needles around the abdomen area, but your pulse felt good". I have read online that some acupuncturists can tell if a woman is pregnant by her pulse, so I'm very curious as to what she meant by it all. And of course I'm curious because it was different than last cycle, when I obviously wasn't pregnant.  In addition, my breasts have been a bit tender for the last few days, which also has me somewhat hopeful. And then I saw a temp dip today, from 98.2 to 97.8. So I'm trying not to overanalyze it all too much, or get too hopeful, because there have been many disappointments over our 2 years of trying. But of course I can't help to hope a bit...

Anyways, here's my chart: http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/79585 My luteal phase is usually only 10 days long, which means AF would arrive on Thursday. I'll probably test Thursday morning, so hopefully I will know by Friday at the latest if this is the month for us! Fingers crossed!!!
