in Long term TTC & infertility
Hey girlies, after having a good 6 month break off trying to conceive and off all things to do with pregnancy including this website lol! We are ready to try again this time we have a CBFM and im having acupuncture and massage every week witch is lovely ive had 2 sessions and can already feel myself feeling much more relaxed and less tense. The person that does my acupuncture says 6 months of treatment and i will be pregnant it might even happen before then so fingers crossed image.

If you have had acupuncture and fallen pregnant using it how long did it take you?

I hope your all doing well and good luck!

xx

    Lu1991 glad to hear that you are feeling better after your break from TTC. FC you get your BFP soon. I haven't tried accupunture, I've tried reflexology twice but I'm not sure how much help it was, I did feel a bit more relaxed though. Good luck x

    What is it about acupuncture that helps towards BFPs, does anyone know?? - or is it just because it helps to relax you?

    Aww yeah i go to a place called Dr China its all chinese people witch seems good because it is there medicine after all lol!

    But yeah it improves blood flow to the whomb witch helps the embryo to implant and it helps ovulation aswell and it really makes you relax and releases stress i love it.

    I also have a massage after to make sure im fully relaxed i think ive had roughly about 6 sessions so far image

    I had accupuncture and got pregnant after 6 weeks - unfortunately that ending in m/c and nothing since! Have been back on and off over the last 2 years - you're right it makes you feel more relaxed but more importantly it sorts out you blood flow, can provide stimulation to the ovaries and just help make things more balanced. I think Zita West's website lists some affiliated practioners across the UK - luckily there was one near me, so everything is really focused around fertility. It's also an informal counselling service, which I've found really helpful as they know what you're going through, all about treatment etc etc.



    I'm considering reflexology as not tried that yet and my sister law swears its what got her pregnant but not done it yet as I like my acupuncturist and she's been on the journey with me!



    Best of luck x

    A weekly massage sounds great. I did that in the run up to our wedding and it was fab... you've got me thinking.
