Couple finds pregnancy success with acupuncture

“Everybody always says just relax don't think about it and that is almost impossible,” said Amy Clinton.

This is not her first experience with acupuncture. Amy and her husband tried to conceive for years but nothing happened.

“I guess I assumed that I wasn't going to be able to have kids because at that point I was already 40.”

After no luck working with fertility treatments, Clinton added acupuncture into the mix.

“It worked," she said. "And actually we had been doing fertility things medication and shots and things along with the acupuncture. The month that I got pregnant we had actually decided to take off from all fertility stuff and we went on vacation for a month and I came back pregnant.”

She's now a mom to a beautiful little boy named Gabriel.

“The joy he brings me, it's wonderful," she said.

“Now that I know my body can have a child and I can get pregnant, I'm hoping that just with the acupuncture that it works out,” said Clinton.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost our precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted there will be no more babies in our house.
