Um. The acupuncturist told me I'm pregnant...

I'm kind of in a state of disbelief and uncertainty. She looked at my tongue and felt my pulse. she said she can't be certain, obviously. But given what she knows of my pulse (and she admits she'd have a better idea if she'd been working with me longer--she takes my pulse before every session), she'd know better. But she says that my pulse is very indicative of pregnancy.?

I'm trying to take that for what it's worth---and not either buy too much into it or dismiss it. Clearly, she's got a 50/50 chance of being right either way, right?! But for right now, I'm pretty content to sit with the possibility and the hope that if it's not now, it might be soon. The herbs she has me on are definitely doing what they're supposed to do; I've never had a chart like this before.?

I guess we'll see!!!!?ETA: If you're one of my FB friends, please don't mention on FB; it's clearly not something I'm ready to share with anyone IRL

Re: Um. The acupuncturist told me I'm pregnant...

  • Oh wow! It must be so hard to take that with a grain of salt though, and, like you said, neither buy it or dismiss it. It's almost impossible not to get excited. Did you decide to wait till Mon to test?

  • Ahh!  How exciting!  Good Luck!

  • How many dpo are you. If it were me I'd buy a test- but I have no will power!!!!!
  • Congrats!!! (I think.)

    hahaha..that's cool.  I hope she's right!

  • very exciting!!!!! And your son is adorable!

    I would love to hear more about your acupuncture experience. ?It has been recommended to be a bunch of times for my headaches but I have never done it. ?Now that I am also going to be ttc (IUI) I have yet another reason to consider it.?

    Given what went down recently I had to LOL at this.

     

    Did you ask her if she thought you were pregnant OR did she just say this out of the blue?!?!

    I give you a lot of credit, I wouldn't be able to hold of on taking a test.

  • LOL--LinzDavid--I almost wrote "don't make me go all PinkFlower on you", but I thought that was mean. ?LOL
  • I hope she's right!

  • I hope she's right Sarah!  How exciting!
  • I hope she's right :)  Now go POAS!
  • I just KNOW this is your BFP month!!!! I don't think I'll be joining you in POAS on Monday- I think AF is making an early appearance this month.  That's ok... it saves me from peeing on a $5 bill :)

    You take my ovaries, I take your yarns.
  • Ooooh, good luck!!  Ditto the others--I'd be at Dollar Tree stocking up on tests to waste if I were you!
  • I told you acupuncture is where it's at! POAS already. I can be at your doorstep by midnight with some tests...don't play with me. Ok, just messing with you. Crossing my fingers this is your month!

  • I'm just getting here late but I am thoroughly excited for you! 
  • wait, you mean you don't want your personal information shared somewhere else on the internet without your permission?

    that sounds awfully familiar.  what happened to "you post on the internet and you don't have control over the information anymore?"

    what a hoot.
