I guess I'm 12dpo today (days past ovulation), based on when I had my +OPK and insemination. Really though, if I look at my chart, I would say I ovulated on day 14 or 15, which would make me more like 7 or 8dpo and Fertility Friend (app that helps you track your fertility) says that I am 6dpo based on my BBT. If I did ovulate on day 14/15 or 17 (like FF thinks I did), it probably wouldn't matter what dpo I am anyway because the sperm would likely have been dead by then. *As a side note, wouldn't it be awesome if I could say that my iphone had a hand in helping me get pregnant?*
Anyway, I could technically do a pregnancy test at this point if I wanted to. I'm holding out though because I am just not ready for a BFN (big fat negative). Also, I don't want to waste the money on pregnancy tests at this point because if they are in my home, I will pee on them. I did order a bunch of internet cheapies just to have on hand, but I don't think they'll be here until later next week, by which time AF will be due anyway.
Of course, I have been scanning my body constantly for pregnancy symptoms. I can't really say that I've had any. I do know that many people do not have symptoms in the 2ww even if they are pregnant. I have been a bit tired, but that could easily be because it is ridiculously hot and I am in desperate need of a vacation. I did have some crazy twitching in the ovary area several days ago, but that could have been my ovary trying to ovulate. It was crazy though, I could actually see it! Sadly, my boobs do not hurt and do not seem different in any way. It's a very odd place to be in; wanting breast pain and nausea.
I did my first acupuncture treatment today, which was really awesome. I just left feeling so good. I am super grateful to have found a place that does sliding scale acupuncture, so I will be do it ongoing. They recommended coming every week for one cycle and then the day before insemination.
On another note, I have been doing a lot of thinking about how I want to proceed moving forward and may change up my plans a little bit. More on that later.
