Wanted to share info from my accupuncture appointment.

So I went for accupuncture for fertility. Just to kind of move things along. Most women that do this go with IVF treatments and things of that nature.

Since I am pretty healthy, he told me:

1. To drink lots of water.
2. During 2ww...don't do any exercise that involves pounding ie running, jumping rope. Elyptical is ok. Walking is ok. He said, if I were going for IVF, they would tell me the same thing.
3. Try not to drink too much caffeine.
4. Eat red meat at least once a week, it increase the uterine lining.
5. If you walk a lot in heels, try flats during 2ww.

Just thought I would share.

Thanks for the info. Did they do a special treatment on you to increase your fertility?

It is supposed to help with blood flow and regulation. He says that women that are experienceing infertility and go for IVF treatments have a 25% chance of getting pregnant. Done with accupuncture, that jumps up to 50%.

A healthy woman already has a 25% chance of getting pregnant. So I figure it will increase my odds.
