It's funny you posted this because I just got off the phone with my acupuncturist talking about treating m/s. She said its very few needles (I'm worried about affecting my sch) and that just a few treatments significantly helps and even eliminates nausea, even intense vomiting. She told me I could start as early as 8 weeks, but that 9 is fine too. I'm thinking about it...but still worried about sch. I know it's not related in any way, but it seems everything makes me worry about sch!

I stopped acupuncture at 12 weeks but I had little to no morning sickness and I contribute a lot of that to acupuncture. I'm not sure about later on in pregnancy but when things get really uncomfortable, I will be trying it,
