When I had DC1 I was having acupuncture about every month from about 7weeks to help with morning sickness and general exhaustion. (PFB )
Would probably have had it more often later in the pg but my acupuncturist went away near my EDD .
This is about 2.5 years ago
Then I moved away and haven't found an acupuncturist near me as yet.
I've hurt my back and have been having osteo treatment for it as am 22 weeks preg with #2 now.
I asked the osteo if acupuncture would help (thought I could make a trip back to my old acupuncturist as I found it all so helpful).
Osteo replied "oh no, it's not advised at all in pregnancy."
Just wondered if anyone else has heard this?
