plumblusher, I tried acupuncture after TTC for two years, in which I had two early MCs in the first year, followed by an inability to get pregnant at all in the second.
I had two sessions with the acupuncturist in the June, and by the end of July I was pregnant, continued to have sessions with him throughout the pregnancy, and DS1 was the result. I've had acupuncture ever since, and conceived DS2 at the first attempt.
DH thinks it's all mumbo-jumbo and coincidence, but I do believe that it really helped me - the positive mindset perhaps, but also the thought that someone was actually helping me and listening to me. In my first session I told the acupuncturist something that I hadn't realised before, which was that I was scared of never getting pregnant again, but also scared of getting pregnant again, in case I had another MC.
So I think you have nothing to lose. (If you live in North London I'm happy to recommend the guy that I see to you.)
And don't worry about your fertility plummeting when you reach 35. After my second MC when I was 34, my gynaecologist told me that one of the factors used by researchers to calculate that fertility plummets after 35, is that older women tend to have less sex, so as long as you are having lots of sex mid-cycle (
), you are already boosting your chances considerably. And you don't need to be at it like rabbits, even - every other day is enough to give you a really good chance of conception.
Good luck to you and looseleaf - I hope you have some happy news very soon.
