I wouldn’t! Too risky. Interested to hear the view of others though. Best wishes. Sarah.

Hi Jennifer. Her reaction sounds like postural hypotension and especially as she was sitting. Suggest treating her lying on her side preferably on her left side at this stage of pregnancy.
Don’t worry, it used to happen to us from time to time at the hospital if they were sitting up on the couch and it resolved within a minute when we laid them down flat with just 1or 2 pillows AND we left the needles in.
Interested in what others think and best wishes with her again. X

Hi Jennifer. Forgive the simplicity of this but my first thought is to strongly advise her to stop work now. If she is worried about her maternity leave then her GP Doc can sign her off. I imagine when she is awake at night she must be worrying about work next day. Interesting to know if she sleeps any better on nights before days off. She wants to be prepared so this is an important investment for her and I fear for her being so exhausted with labour approaching so soon, potentially! At least if not working she can have some sleeps in the day to build up her Qi and Blood.
I have had patients like this who are reluctant to stop working but I spent time discussing how much energy they are going to need not only for birth but definitely after eh? And for quite some time!!! Best wishes with your client.

Hi Jennifer.
I would get her to start doing Moxa to Zhiyin UB67 bilaterally , twice a day for 15 minutes as soon as possible, as she is already 35 weeks and you want her to complete the course in good time before the ECV. Anterior placenta is not a contraindication to this. Best wishes, Sarah B.
