So I need your alls feed back on a subject! As the IUI date gets closer the more stressed out/nervous I get. I have read a lot of blogs that talk about accupuncture/massage to help throughout the whole process. What are your thoughts?? I of course wouldn't turn down a massage, but do they really help?!
Let me know your experiences and stories!
I LOVE acupuncture! Seriously, can't get enough. It's totally relaxing and I particularly love it because my acupuncturist always validates whatever strange "symptoms" I'm having and makes sense of it all. I think it's important to find someone you really like. And lots of people swear by it for TTC. And massage...I'd never turn one down myself!
ReplyDeleteI haven't done either during the TWW but we did just start a relaxation CD. I think the key is relaxation and if either help with that for you then go for it! I've used acupuncture for a chronic back injury and had great success. I've also heard regular visits can help with uterine lining and blood flow uterus.
ReplyDeleteI did acupuncture, and I'm still not pregnant after 4 iui cycles and 2 ivf cycles, so who knows.
ReplyDeleteI started accupuncture last month and have had 7-8 sessions to get all of the engergies balanced in my body - our 3 round IUI is this Thurs and Friday so I booked accupuncture tomorrow, Thurs and Friday - I've read that it can increase the success rate by up to 40%. I have read other blogs who used it as well with success, so keep your fingers crossed and we will keep you posted if this one is a success!
