What points did she use for you?

I had one between my eyes, one in each ear, one on each wrist, one in my stomach, and 3 in my foot (ankle, above the ankle, and top of the foot). I also had some in my back, but I believe that was for my tension, not fertility.

Glad you enjoyed it! She wants me to do 2x a week for a few weeks, then 1x a week. We were both busy this week though, so I probably won't get another treatment until Friday.

Does it hurt? What is the price range? If we can afford it, maybe I'll use my June birthday as my starting point.

Congrats! I loved my acupuncture appointments and miss them. My acupuncturist was big on doing appointments every week except the second week of my LP. She thought that was a big no-no. She was also really big on diet and herbs, but left how much of that I followed up to me. If you haven't already, you should take a look at The Infertility Cure book by Dr. Randine Lewis. It's awesome! I hope your acupuncturist is able to help.

Acupuncture doesn't or shouldn't hurt. I only had one needle that hurt the whole time I did it and my acupuncturist removed it when I told her it was agitating. My insurance didn't cover my treatments, but I did get a price break because of my insurance. I think the price varies by area of the country and by the person treating you. It took me a long time to find the person I wanted to go to and I talked to a bunch of acupuncturists on the phone. A lot of them turned me off with their "I know better than you" attitude. I wanted someone who was going to work with me, not on me. A lot of acupuncturists say they treat infertility, but that doesn't mean they specialize in it. There are a lot of great acupuncturists out there though, so good luck to anyone who decides to go that route.

i love the lady i found. she has helped other women with m/c.

it totally didn't hurt at all!!!! and she told me if any of them did, to tell her and she'd readjust them. i felt so wonderful and relaxed the whole rest of the day.

I pay $50 per session and i go once per week. the initial consultation was $100 but she spent two hours with me. I figure it can't hurt. I can seemingly get pregnant, i just need to stay pregnant!!

I totally recommend it.

HUGS

I just wanted to add it didn't hurt for me either. There were a couple points that I felt something, but it wasn't painful.
