After three lost pregnancies within 18 months, seeing multiple fertility specialists, we were told we were experiencing "bad luck". There was nothing medically wrong that kept us from having a second healthy child, other than the fact that I was a tad bid over 35 years old (I believe the term "geriatric eggs" was joked about). We were both healthy, relatively fit, and extremely frustrated. Frankly our family planning completely consumed our lives and this stretched to our extended families who offered a lot of helpful (and sometimes unhelpful) advice. A relative gently suggested that while we were both healthy and fit by many measures, perhaps there were other internal imbalances that we should consider. Heather Seay was recommended as a trusted acupuncturist in our area and I called her immediately. Heather is wonderful to work with. On our first visit, she could sense my frustration with our situation and wanted to make sure that I had proper expectations set. I recall she specifically told me that my issues were not an overnight fix and it could take up to 3 months before we saw progress. I saw Heather once a week and to the EXACT DAY at three months, I had a positive home pregnancy test. I continued to see Heather throughout my pregnancy and postpartum period. We considered her as part of my medical team that ensured I had a healthy and comfortable pregnancy. Seeing her during postpartum greatly assisted in my recovery, which was very different from my first postpartum period when I didn't see her. I still continue to see Heather for general health maintenance. We now have a healthy, curious, and rambunctious boy and our little family feels complete. I can't thank Heather enough for the gift she was able to give our family.
