My first trimester of pregnancy was very difficult; I was very nauseous and had pretty bad acid reflux. When I saw my midwife I had lost 14lbs and had to take Zantac for my reflux. As this was not ideal and I did not want to take anything during pregnancy my midwife suggested I try acupuncture. Even though I had utilized acupuncture many times in the past I did not think I could use it for nausea but I contacted my acupuncturist Monica and I made an appointment. When I arrived at the clinic I was 16 weeks along and my nausea had started to get worse and I was still throwing up every day and losing weight. After my first treatment I stopped throwing up. After my second treatment the nausea was completely gone and after my third treatment I did not have to take my Zantac anymore. I went for a total of five treatments and I have started to gain weight and have more energy. I am now 22 weeks and am feeling great thanks to acupuncture and Monica. I would recommend prenatal/pregnancy acupuncture to anyone who has any discomfort in any area.
