    So glad to hear you are both healty, fabulous!

    Not to worry about your chances with acupuncture, weight should not be an issue at all. Don't forget you can simply use your own thumb pressure on the wrist point, no weight worries there!

    aaww hugs hun -that sounds just awful and no wonder you're feeling upset. I agree that acupuncture should be fine on anyone, regardless of weight. I reckon it's definitely worth a try. I had acupuncture in my first trimester - and kept thinking I'd m/c'ed because I always felt so much better after it!!! Plus I had it in third trimester to induce labour too.

    Depending where you are, there's acupuncturists at the bellybelly centre in Camberwell (I saw Justin Keane there - he was great)... I'd definitely recommend making sure the acupuncturist is experienced with PG - that'll make it hopefully better chance of helping (and makes sure they don't do anything they shouldn't)... and obviously the bellybelly ones (think there's a few of them) are all good with PG!

    Sending you big and hope you feel better soon! I really feel for you.

    Belfie.

    i can definitely vouch for being overweight being no problem!

    like belfie, i've been to the bellybelly centre for my a/c & i saw sharmaine. i think they're great as well!

    glad to hear that you & the baby are in good condition and they've given you something different to try. i hope it works wonders for you!!
