Pregnant with Two Year Old Frozen Embryos
After an unsuccessful Invitro-Fertilization (IVF) attempt, I decided to use yoga and acupuncture for both stress relief and a healthy mind, body and spirit. I used these treatments both before, during and after a second IVF attempt and my husband and I were excited to learn that we were expecting a son. After another year of trying to get pregnant (with no success), I again turned to acupuncture to help get my body ready for a frozen embryo transfer. I contacted Carolyn and started acupuncture before my fertility treatments were to begin. Even though a transfer does not entail the same amount of preparation as a full IVF, I wanted to have my body and mind as prepared as possible. The acupuncture treatments were easy and pain-free. We discussed my goals and prepared my body for what was to happen. After the transfer, Carolyn actually told me my abdomen felt warm and she thought I was pregnant -- and boy was I, with boy/girl twins. I would recommend acupuncture for anyone going through any type of fertility problems/treatments. There is nothing to lose and everything to gain.
