    Hi Angel, yes, I could still claim another 3 sessions until I'm maxed out but my main concern is she was swaying me off starting Chlomid. My guy is telling me to start the meds!

    If my cycle ends this weekend for whatever outcome, it will be half the length of my last. I have no idea if this has been natural or a benefit of the acupuncture.

    It is a lot of money to pay out for something you are not sure is working. I started going around 3 months ago and have had around 9 sessions and I can honestly say that I haven't noticed many differences in my myself apart from getting a period 5 weeks after my first session. It probably isn't a coincidence but I just don't know. Sorry this probably hasn't helped your situation but stick at it if you think it is helping you xx

    Thanks ladies, my gut is defo telling e to start the Clomid.

    The hubby and I sat and had a chat last night. As expected, he wants me to do what makes me happy but did have a few questions about the negatives of Clomid. But the positives out way the negatives or me.

    I have acupuncture tonight. I usually make a future appointment when I am there but think I am just going to tell her I'll let her know. I'll make a decision over the weekend depending on what happens.

    No sign of AF this morning xxx

    Well I caved this afternoon and POAS... Well 4 sticks to be exact! Needed to check that my eyes weren't deceiving me and it was infact a BFP I was seeing!

    An Internet cheapie, a home bargains cheapie, a first response and a clear blue digital later and I am 1-2 weeks pregnant! I'm still in absolute shock, just can't believe it!!!

    Just jumping back over to say congratulations Clara.

    I definitely think our bodies suddenly start to work at the threat of us needing some medical help!!

    Ps if you are anything like me there will be a lot more sticks used over the next or so just to keep proving it's really a bfp!!
