39th week of acupuncture

Here I am at my 39th week of acupuncture. I took my chart to LAc and she said that it is looking really good. "My ovaries," she said, "are waking up and doing what they are supposed to do," which is ovulation. That makes me feel great and I just hope that it only gets better. I must really stick to my diet now and my exercise routine. I asked her if it would be okay to lose some weight and she said that it was fine so long as it was not over 10 lbs. I am looking forward to my IVF #2 and will do everything in my power to make sure that everything goes smoothly. Here is my treatment beginning on CD6 (which is on wednesday 4/4) until CD12 (next Tuesday 4/10):
