I would gag at things that smelled bad. I threw up 2 or 3 times during my entire pregnancy... and that was usually after eating something that made me nauseated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1431096 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 11:54:45 +0000 Thenetexan 1431096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it weeks 4 through 12 on my fourth pregnancy. I had no MS or nausea with my first pregnancy. The next two pregnancies did not make it past 8 weeks. I was nauseous everyday that I took the progesterone. Mine was oral, 200 mg. I have read that side effects are worse with the oral doses. Since every pregnancy is different, it is possible the progesterone is not to blame but I suspect it is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430991 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 11:12:06 +0000 Torchwood 1430991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am currently on progesterone and 11w4d, and have had pretty much no nausea. I actually had more nausea with my first when I wasn't on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430853 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 10:37:09 +0000 MaryM 1430853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took progesterone to kick start my periods, and I remember feeling like DEATH while on them.</p> <p>I took them for 4 weeks with my pregnancy (which ended in miscarriage...so maybe I didn't have morning sickness to begin with) and I didn't mind them at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430852 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 10:37:04 +0000 Jenn23 1430852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had bad morning sickness (nausea, but not much vomiting) and was on progesterone injections, then Crinone until about 11 or 12 weeks. But I don't know that it was due to the progesterone because after I stopped that, I continued to have bad morning sickness until probably the 16th week. I also had it return in the late 3rd trimester. So I don't know that for me there was a correlation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430796 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 10:23:27 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1430796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on prog and had TERRIBLE M/s. I was sent to the hospital for IVs because the vomiting caused me to become dehydrated. Finally, they put me on Zofran. My OB said it can heighten pregnancy symptoms. But I will say, I still had m/s long after I stopped taking progesterone (albeit not as bad). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430653 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 09:36:55 +0000 wheres_c 1430653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>puked all day! got better when I stopped the supplements </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430593 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 09:21:38 +0000 pui 1430593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on Crinone from 5 weeks to 12 weeks. I had what I would consider medium morning sickness (and it started before I got on the Crinone). I had days were I just felt nauseated all day, and I gagged at every smell, but during the whole first tri I think I only threw up around 10 times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430587 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 09:17:50 +0000 Alivoo01 1430587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took progesterone supplements my entire 1st trimester. It didn't make me nauseous or vomit, but it did make me extremely fatigue. Like I was already tired from the pregnancy, but the supplements made me drowsy/sleepy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430533 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 08:53:19 +0000 LovelyPlum 1430533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LMOG47: this was me, too! I was on 200 mg of Prometrium twice a day for 13 weeks, and I had awful all day nausea for 18 weeks. But it lasted longer than I was on the suppositories, so take that for what it's worth... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430532 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 08:52:24 +0000 swedishfish 1430532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: maybe it was the twins with the extra hormones...I was pregnant with twins until 9 weeks and my MS was bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430502 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 08:29:31 +0000 Caly 1430502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took it for the first 14 or so weeks and had horrible horrible all day nausea for about 20 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430495 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 08:20:18 +0000 twodoghouse 1430495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on injections and suppositories for the first 12 weeks. I was nauseous a lot, but only threw up once or twice. And I'm having twins so double the hormones, but still not much MS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430480 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 08:04:45 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1430480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on progesterone after I got my BFP around 5 weeks. I was taking a morning and night suppository (I forget but it was a higher dose). I would say I wasn't even really nauseous and certainly never threw up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430476 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 07:59:56 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1430476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started 200mg of micronized progesterone on 2DPO and never experienced any symptoms while taking it all three cycles. </p> <p>On my third cycle, I experienced nausea on 9dpo but I also got my BFP a day later. I had morning sickness with Chloe, too, and didn't take progesterone then. </p> <p>I had mild off &amp; on nausea for awhile. I threw up at 6 weeks then felt good until 8 weeks. I stopped taking progesterone at 9.. I've had severe nausea and occasional vomiting since. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430449 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 07:26:05 +0000 singingbee 1430449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on the pills and had nausea, but I only threw up in the mornings, after I would sneeze. I don't think it had to do with the pills. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430447 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 07:20:34 +0000 Running Elley 1430447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on strong progesterone (injections) until 14 weeks with both of my sticky pregnancies. With #1 I wasnauseous and vomited about once a day until 11 weeks. With #2 I only vomited like 3 times total but I was nauseous until about 13 weeks. I wouldn't call either especially severe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430443 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 07:14:57 +0000 blackbird 1430443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on progesterone and i was a little nauseous but not awful. They warned me the progesterone would likely make me more woozy and stupid than anything, so I took it at night before bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430437 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 07:01:49 +0000 spaniellove 1430437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had 1-2 weeks of nausea while on the supplements but really my nausea didn't start until after I went off them in 2nd tri.</p> <p>ETA: At 6 weeks I switched to injections and had super high levels...for some reason they kept my progesterone at around 100. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-progesterone-supplements#post-1430423 Tue, 18 Feb 2014 06:46:24 +0000 swedishfish 1430423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...did you have (what you consider to be) bad morning sickness? This is my completely non-scientific poll.</p> <p>* multiple votes enabled for multiple pregnancies<br /> * disclaimer - I will be asking for the progesterone supplements today but I am also convinced that they made my morning sickness worse with R. </p>
