Trying to Get Pregnant
Reply to yesterdays post!
Hello all,
Well after my what seemed like forever wait and 3 BFN's I finally got my long (15 month) awaited BFP!!! 
I know everyone hates drive by BFP's (and even when I wasn't posting I felt really snarky when a new person would come back to the getting pregnant group just to post there BFP as if it wasn't bad enough that here we were all trying, however, if someone would have posted what they did to get pregnant (maybe) I would have appreciated it... Since mine is sort of off the beat and track...I thought I'd share, and if it helps one person I'll be happy! heres my story of this month of what I did "different"!
Went to a fertility clinic for an evaluation because it had been 15 months... they suggested trying Fertility Acupuncture, massage and chiropractic before further testing (because all looked good...), so I went 3 times to the Acupuncturist (once after AF, Once before my estimated ovulation and once 5-10 days after), she gave me herbs to take (Hepasil from usana), I had a massage, and got adjusted once per week. I changed my prenatal to a whole food supplement, upped my omega 3 fish oils, started taking extra vitamin D and C, started taking OPC (which has grapeseed extract and a bunch of other stuff) and wobenzyme. And had a lot of sex! I would highly recommend that woman trying to concieve try the Acupuncture, massage and Chiropractic. Specifically onces that specialize in fertiltity and pregnancy. Hope that helps, sending lots of baby dust to you all, I really know the feeling of let down and saddness!

(Congrats.
I seriously side-eye any doctor that would tell you to try acupuncture, massages, and seeing chiro instead of doing actual fertility testing. )
Well a bit of history, my cycles are 28 days to a T usually, they did bloodwork and an ultrasound and I went to this fertiltity clinic specifically because there were more holistic in nature! And after talking with all three of them there is good reason to try them first, and well it worked so I'm happy!!!
Huh?!?
OP, congrats and have a H&H 9 months!
::snorts::
Congrats!
Did you get your BFP on the FIRST cycle doing all of that holistic stuff? After 15 months?
yep, after 15 months I tried the holistic stuff and got a BFP on the first cycle utilizing it!!!
Thanks so much for all the congrats, I hope that all of you get your BFP this cycle and come to the first tri!!! I would highly reccommend the concervative approach, after all you have nothing to lose... thats how I felt at least!
