billy kat - i'm just over 17 weeks now

the chinese herbs were prescribed by a chinese medicine practitioner, who also did my acupuncture (which totally didn't hurt btw!!) - the lady i saw spent about an hour with me talking about my medical history, cycles etc and then she checked my tongue & pulse (which is standard). on the basis of all of these things she suggested some herbs that i might want to take & i decided why not! they actually made me feel awesome! more than anything they were herbs to help your overall feeling of wellbeing which i think was a real positive.

sorry - could talk all day about the acupuncture & herbs. my experience was obviously a positive one!
