Well acupuncture was fab! I have decided to go for the electro - acupuncture which has seen to have higher success rates for women going through IVF.. its a bit strange have needles put in you then connected to wires (as if you were trying to jump start a car ! ) sending electric pulses through your body So got to have 8 of these sessions before ET so its going to be a busy few weeks for me! But the lovely lady is working miracles as she is working to increase blood flow to my uterus, increase my energy, reduce my stress levels, keep me positive as well as keep any side effects of the buserelin that I am injecting at bay... so far so good! and hopefully money well spent!  Plus she has got me on Zita West vits etc..
I hope you are well Kitkat and everyone else x

Hi Footsteps
I've had accupuncture (normal and electro too) for back pain (following a nasty car accident and major back surgery) and really rate it for pain relief, so hopefully it will be just as effective for this. A friend of my hubby's also used it as pain relief during labour, but I think I'd be afraid that I wouldn't be able to keep still and would snap one off or dig it in too deep LOL !!
Feeling fab, just run out of steam quite quickly these days, but at least have finished work now, so this week some serious baby retail therapy starts
However, baby is extended breech, so there's a good chance I'll have to have an elective ceasarian around 37/38 weeks, but we'll see. I'm not phased at all by it though, whatever is best for baby, and me.
Keep up the PMA Footsteps I'm sure that's half the battle...

Hi Kitkat,
I wouldn't like to be in labour with needles poking out me etc either lol! I hope you are well and this glorious weather isn't taking too much of a toll on you and you have been able to do some baby retail therapy. I cannot believe how quickly the last 8mths has gone by (for me anyway lol!) Hopefully the baby will turn in time but like you I wouldn't be phased by anything either...the main thing is what is best for mum & baby
AFM - still downregging & got scan next week so hopefully will be given some indication of when ET will be.. then it will feel a bit more like I am cycling. Acupuncture is going a treat.. am having a couple of sessions a week now till ET.
Take care

Hi Footsteps
Was thinking about you the other day but didn't get round to posting, things are pretty hectic as our house sale has completed and now we're trying to complete on our purchase. Along with Little One imminently arriving..... it's all go !!
Nope, still hasn't turned, so I'm booked in for an elective section on Monday..... eeeek !! At the scan last Monday she was estimated at 6lb 10oz, so a good size
6 weeks of downregging, ouch ! Hope the cyst has gone and you can move forward...

I know that you will be up to your eyes in everything, so I wanted to wish you all the very best for Monday and I look forward to hearing your news very soon x
afm cyst gone at long last I ended up being put on some tablets to cause a bleed & boy what a bleed that was!! but it appears to have done the job and at long last we have been given the green light to crack on with the estradiol tablets so not long before ET! so its all systems go again for us x
Good Luck & Speak very soon

Well our DD arrived on Monday, and she is perfect The team in theatre were amazing (especially as there were complications and I had a lot of blood loss due to previous endometriosis), it was a bit surreal being awake during it all though.
But we're home now, and I'm feeling a lot better and brighter than I thought I would be just 3 days after.
DD was 6lb 10oz, and a little poppet. We feel very very blessed.
How are you Footsteps ?

Kitkat CONGRATULATIONS to you & DH on the safe arrival of your DD xx I bet you are both over the moon do you have a name for her yet? Glad that all turned out well in the end and you are out of hospital so soon, nothing better than being in the comfort of your own home even if your are surrounded by packing boxes!
afm - well almost there! not long till I will be in the dreaded 2ww! but this time going back to work to try & keep me busy! like it will lol!
Congratulations again Kitkat so happy for you
