    I used an acupuncturist called Chiemi at Newstead Holistic Medicine for my last IVF cycle. It was a success, so I can't recommend her highly enough
    We are going to see her on Saturday - they sounded really nice on the phone and were the only ones we could get into this month so will keep you all posted.

    Update - DH and I went and saw Chiemi on Saturday. See is lovely and seemed to know what she was doing. Asked me all different questions about our IVF cycle and I think the good thing about the clinic was that we both had to fill in a big questionniare before we went and then she went through that with us at the begining of the appointment. I think they are great because it gives you time to think before you are "put on the spot". We both had a dose of acupuncture and have been given some lovely tasting herbs to take. We go back in 3 weeks time. She has said it will take about 3 months so we'll see what happens. I feel like we are at least being a bit proactive about it now and doing something towards making it all happen.

    Hi Everyone,

    I just wanted to add my Brissie recommendations to this forum. My DH and I go to Peter at the Healthy Living Centre Red Hill. I have also been to Kirsty Eng at Herston whenever Peter is on leave. She is amazing and a success story herself. Both Peter and Kirsty are friends and classmates of Beau's. They all graduated together and do the same practices.

    I have found over the past 10 months of going to Peter that with acupuncture and Chinese Herbs I have been able to balance my cycle and stress levels. So I feel strong enough to give IVF a go now. Am booked in for a consult with Dr Das at City IVF late Jan
