Hi there

I'm 5 weeks and 3 days pregnant.

I have been seeing an acupuncturist to help me conceive and my next appointment is due tomorrow.

I am having some doubts about going though. I am concerned that the ap might do something to harm the baby. I find that the process actually causes me a bit of pain and feels mildly traumatic physically, and I'm worried that all the changes it makes in my body will disturb the baby.

I have had a previous miscarriage, so my fear level is naturally a lot higher than if I hadn't. It also took me 15 months to conceive this baby following my m/c, using assisted conception.

I asked a nurse at my fertility clinic and she said I'd have to ask my acupuncturist about it, but she didn't know of any reason not to do it. Have done a bit of googling as well.

I'm just looking for ppls opinions who have had ap in early pregnancy, and if anyone has heard that you shouldn't do it.

Thanks very much in advance.
