I’ve been seeing an acupuncturist to see if it can help with my fertility. I’m not sure if or how it works but I’m willing to give anything a go. My periods are so all over the place I thought if they could work on balancing everything in my body, and then do some specifics to boost fertility it might just be the nudge my body needs (while I wait to see the gynaecologist again). So, I’ve been going for a few months now and my lovely therapist had started on some actual specifics for fertility, which at the very least seemed to have got my periods into a more regular cycle. I haven’t had a period for 37 days now and the last time I went to see my acupuncturist she made a few comments. Maybe I was reading too much into it as I know she would never say anything to get my hopes up (and I’m sure she wouldn’t be able to tell yet anyway) but I just got the feeling I might be pregnant!?! We’re away skiing at the moment, and we just couldn’t wait any longer to find out. Also, it’s always a very boozy affair when we go away with the ski group so I didn’t want to risk being pregnant and then drinking my body weight in beer and wine. So, I did a test this morning….and it was negative. I know I shouldn’t but I’d really got my hopes up and actually thought it might be positive. I think Mr M did too. I felt so low afterwards, I couldn’t bring myself to ski with the group in the morning. So I spent some time on my own, skied a few easy runs, cleared my head and met Mr M at a delicious omelette place for lunch. I think we both still feel deflated but there was definitely no better place to be than up in those mountains to sort our heads out. Maybe next month heh…….
