Saph and Janet- I cannot recommend acupuncture enough. My 1st cycle I didn't know anything about the benefits of acupuncture and so cruised through without it-BFN. The next cycle I had acup twice a week leading up to transfer, an appointment the day before and then one immediately after...the result- BFP. Unfortunately I lost that little one but I would not go through a cycle now without having it. I swear by it. Also, believe it or not, I hadn't had AF for over 60 days after my first BFN and was beside myself as I wanted to start another cycle. My FS couldn't do anything because of all my levels and I was told I couldn't start til AF came. That day I had my first acupuncture apointment and spilled everything to my acup guru. He asked me "So do you want your period then"....I was like.."Of Course!!". Now I have to tell you if ever there was a sceptic, I was she. BUT...within 30 mins of my treatment ending I had AF. SERIOUSLY!! Then I went back the next week and told him I really had to have AF stop so everything could begin...after that day AF had stopped. This is all true really and I seriously would not do a cycle now without acupuncture. A lot of clinics now is the US won't treat you unless you are having acupuncture.

The other thing is my acupunture man puts really small needles in my ears that stay there just to help with all the stress.

I hope this encourages you to at least try it. I just went in with the frame of mind that it couldn't hurt.

Sorry for my ramble but if I can help anyone to get that much longed for BFP with my story then the ramble is worth it!!

10 hours til ET and am starting to get nervous... MUST get to bed!!

Night night all

Hugs Bel
