The time … I used acupuncture to induce labor

As I mentioned my second pregnancy was not as easy as my first. I ease miserable for the most part so it was obvious that when I reached 40 weeks I was eager to meet my baby already.

At 40 weeks and 1 day I went to my obgyn, he checked for contractions but nothing much. I wasn’t even dilated.

I left the office not too happy.

That same day I had an appointment with a chiropractor who did also acupuncture for pregnant women.

After making sure I was at my 40th week he agreed to help me get into labor.

I lied on my stomach (on a chair with a hole in the middle, in case you were wondering) and he started sticking needles in strategic spots.

It was a Friday. Being Jewish Fridays are a bit tricky for me. I cook a bunch of food to have ready…
