Hi ladies. I have been following all your stories for a while as I started acu in September. It was recommended by a friend who has gone through several treatments of IVF. Initially i was scared it would hurt and scared what she would tell me and i was going each week. After a few sessions i started to enjoy the feeling of the needles and the sensations and I actually looked forward to it. The only thing i can compare it too was getting 'my fix'. I know this sounds strange but it felt like a pressure release!
Quite quickly i found that i was sleeping better at night. My acu is linked to Zita West and she lent me the cd so i could add onto my phone (this i didn't feel useful and only used it a few times in total).
I also noticed my periods getting slightly heavier as they had always been really light. A good thing i think. My acu does not use herbs but instead encouraged me to drink lemon and hot water in the morning to clear my system and sip water through the day. Again i felt better in myself just by doing this.
So...... 10 months after starting our journey and 4 months after acu each week and i got my bfp. I have a session after work tonight so excited to tell her but i am nervous and praying that everything goes as planned and the little bean sticks. It is such early days.
My view is that acu has helped me get there but i know that it is different for everyone. I am shocked though at some of the situations that all of you have been subjected too. Its completely unprofessional for comments to be made for hopes to be raised unnecessarily. Its an incredibly stressful time and i feel its also hugely irresponsible for herbs to be suggested. These things are not cheap!
I am hoping to continue with the acu once a month but i will be continuing to continue this thread.
Love and baby dust to all xx
