I've heard tons about acupuncture but not much about chiropractors helping. I have endo so not sure if it would do anything for me though.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1711053 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 19:48:50 +0000 msmug 1711053@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was doing ivf, but I started going to see my chiro after I had a discectomy (surgery) for a badly herniated disc. Few months after starting chiro, we finally got our bfp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709805 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 13:06:02 +0000 deactivated_account 1709805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: That's awesome to know!

So yes... I went to the chiropractor 4 times in a month a little while ago. I didn't tell him "Hi, please do fertility-specific adjustments." I did call the front office and ask the receptionist girl about fertility-specific adjustments and she had no clue what I was talking about. I like the chiro but I didn't go any more beyond that one month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709550 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 11:51:16 +0000 doxielove 1709550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: Interesting, thank you! Congrats on your bfp! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709269 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 10:43:13 +0000 Cole 1709269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@doxielove: I have a happy update! The first month I went to the chiro while we were ttc I got a bfp. I had been having hip issues in particular so it could be related (or it could be a total fluke!) I went twice, once before I ovulated and once just after, the visits were a week apart. I didn't read anything that suggested an ideal timing so again, I have no clue if it made a difference but something worked that month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709123 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 10:05:47 +0000 dc yoga bee 1709123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@doxielove: she said I can see her at any time. She was diagnosed with IF after trying for a year, and took another year to get pregnant under an RE's care. So, I like that she wasn't all oh you're 27, just have sex, and was sensitive to my feelings and concerns. She is very holistic,and I recommend finding someone like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709107 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 10:01:41 +0000 doxielove 1709107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dc yoga bee: Nice! I have horrible posture so maybe that will be my "reason" for the appointment. Do you go at any certain point in your cycle? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709094 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 09:58:31 +0000 dc yoga bee 1709094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@doxielove: I've been going for 4 months and I love it. I've had a 30% improvement in my posture in 6 weeks. I was going weekly,then every other week, and now monthly with home exercises. I no longer have back pain either. Still ttc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1709082 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 09:55:27 +0000 doxielove 1709082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping this to see if anyone has any recent updates...@MrsMcD, did you ever go to see a chiro? I've never been to one but have been thinking about making an appointment... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1424984 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 15:08:11 +0000 deactivated_account 1424984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlteach: Oh gees... endometriosis...

The chiropractor has fixed my headaches and hip ache, but it looks like my back pain is from endometriosis, and that is likely the reason we aren't pregnant yet. </p> <p>So yes, it has helped a ton with my overall well being, but no it hasn't helped us to conceive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1424198 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 11:26:39 +0000 deactivated_account 1424198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlteach: are you still going to the chiropractor? How is it helping? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1424092 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 10:59:52 +0000 dc yoga bee 1424092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just had my first visit as my back and neck spasms have been getting out of control even with the yoga. LOVED LOVED my new chiropractor. I told her we are ttc, and she said churro was safe, and may even help, but I love she didn't make any promises. She also told me to get healthier, and is helping me with a nutrition plan. Loved this woman's holistic approach. Oh, and my neck and back feel better. My neck feels better for the first time in months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1365089 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 17:16:40 +0000 deactivated_account 1365089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. 64: I agree that it never hurts to try. Also, my chiro does $25 adjustments so its not too expensive to start doing that more frequently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1365085 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 17:15:45 +0000 mrs. 64 1365085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlteach: Thanks. :happy: I don't remember where the sublaxations were exactly but generally it was neck and lower back. I am a huge fan because it helped my pain immensely and I went from about 3 migraines a week to not having one in the past year. </p> <p>@MrsMcD: I wished I was one of the lucky ones who had success with ttc at the chiro. It doesn't hurt to try it though since some people have success! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1365043 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 17:02:51 +0000 deactivated_account 1365043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetMamaM: Yes, it does help! Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1364718 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:12:02 +0000 Cole 1364718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I re-started going to the chiropractor this cycle (5) so I am hoping it helps, although he said things were looking pretty good and I was only mildly "off". He did a regular adjustment with a bit more emphasis on my hips but that is where I typically have problems. He also said there is some research that supports the idea of chiropractic care being helpful in conception and that at the very least it certainly can't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1364691 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:01:29 +0000 SweetMamaM 1364691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlteach: mine was Stage 2 Sacro-Iliac Separation, meaning that one side of my pelvis had pretty much come away from my spine, putting me completely out of balance.<br /> @MrsMcD: I told my Chiro that I was having back pain but also that I was having really bad cycle issues. I don't think the adjustments were specific to fertility, but basically the inflammation in the area was so bad that my body was delaying cycles because it would have been detrimental to my health to carry a pregnancy. Hope this helps! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1364286 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 13:00:48 +0000 Ash 1364286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: anytime!

Or was it just a regular adjustment? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1364164 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 12:34:03 +0000 Ash 1364164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: no need to apologize - I just wanted to make it clear. :grin: I was scared to death to tell him but I broke down in tears and it all came out lol!</p> <p>I guess maybe I did have fertility issues.

But I'm just thinking I need to get over that. And sorry... I wasn't even trying to imply you had fertility issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1364084 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 12:20:38 +0000 Ash 1364084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: I did! But I wouldn't say I had fertility issues... but my cycle was completely out of whack after having a m/c a few months before and then struggling to get pregnant again. I came right out and told him why I was there. Now he does adjustments on my 7 week old. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1363879 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 11:38:46 +0000 deactivated_account 1363879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetMamaM: and @Ash: thanks girls! One last question.... did you tell your chiropractors that you were wanting help with fertility issues?</p> <p>@mrs. 64: thanks for your input as well. For every one girl who says things like "i just relaxed my mind, took a vacation and got pregnant!" there are about 15 girls I know who did the same and did not get pregnant. I'm such a realist and love to hear all opinions on things like this. But hey... 8 months isn't bad! I'm just starting my 9th cycle of TTC. womp womp...... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1363395 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 09:36:08 +0000 Alivoo01 1363395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw a chiropractor every week pre-pregnancy just because I loved getting adjusted. Once I was pregnant and started having lower back pains, I went twice a week until 35 weeks. I totally think getting adjusted constantly helped me have an easy pregnancy. Having everything aligned and proper blood flow is always a plus! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1363298 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 09:02:04 +0000 owlteach 1363298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: @SweetMamaM: Thank you both! Just curius, do you know where your subluxations were?</p> <p>@mrs. 64: I don't know if I have said Congrats yet :) Hopefully 8 is the lucky cycle for me :) Do you know where your subluxations were? I was getting awful headaches too, so my upper neck was where he started really focusing initially and it made the world of difference. Once he got done there, he moved down to my lower back. I guess he'd known it was out the whole time, but because my neck was the one causing pain, he started there. Fixing that problem only took 3 appointments. He's been working on my lower back for 5 appointments, and were just now talking about phasing me down to less frequent appointments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chiropractic-care-and-ttc#post-1363186 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 07:34:38 +0000 mrs. 64 1363186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This didn't help me. I've been going to a chiro for 2 years, first because of back pain/migraines following an accident and then for maintenance. I went about every 2 weeks while I was TTC and it still took me 8 months to conceive. </p>
