I have to agree with what everyone is saying....acupuncture needles really do not hurt...they are so tiny...I found it very relaxing and would usually fall asleep with the needles in...there were a few occassions where I was restless as some others have said but for the most part it was relaxing...

My acupuncturist specialized in infertility and she herself had two children through IVF so I really trusted and respected her and her advise/opinions

My needles were also in the ears, which can pinch for a second, my forehead, wrists, a few in my uterus and 3-4 down my legs, my ankles and top of foot which can be tender sometimes and sometimes my hands....I don't think I ever had more than 20 needles...and they are small....not like those 8 inch long things they show on TV

I got pregnant with my first IVF cycle...I continued acupuncture through my first trimester where she focused on supporting the uterus and general health...I had not a single lick of morning sickness and think it may be due to the acupuncture!!!

I think it is a great thing and I have read some many stuidies and blogs/threads from women swearing that acupuncture helped them get pregnant and I am one of them!!!

Best of Luck!!!!!
