When I talked to my OB, she didn't mention anything we needed to do right away, but she said I would be checked more closely to make sure there are no issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1231556 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 08:17:47 +0000 winniebee 1231556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sisters first was born at 34 weeks</p> <p>Bed rest Bc of short cervix with #2 at 28 weeks and made it to due date</p> <p>Bed rest same reason and prog shots starting at 20 wks with #3 and made it to due date </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1231527 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 07:55:19 +0000 Dandelion 1231527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AprilK: Great for the success! My third trimester is going to be a balancing act. I have a history of preterm labor AND of a very large stillborn (10 pounds) at 39 weeks. SO, the goal is to get me to term, but also keep an eye out for baby getting too big. You can wall me more about it...the cervix thing is daunting. My pelvis was so sore by the time I went into labor with S. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1231518 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 07:50:16 +0000 AprilK 1231518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did the weekly shots with my daughter who is 8 weeks old. They made my cervix very sensitive, so had some weird side effects that had me seeing the doc most weeks. I can dm you more, it was a little tmi for the general public!</p> <p>But dd was born at 38w, 3d so I'm a prog shot success stat! Like did them from 14w-37w. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1231517 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 07:49:55 +0000 Weagle 1231517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't, but a friend of mine did. Her first was born at 34 weeks, so she had to go in weekly for the shots with her twins. They made it to 37-38 weeks with no other help! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1231483 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 07:15:23 +0000 Dandelion 1231483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Running Elley: I have to go into the office and let a nurse do it...still not a big deal, since the office isn't very far from me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1230787 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 17:39:30 +0000 Running Elley 1230787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had progesterone shots twice a week for the first half of both of my pregnancies (obviously for different reasons). My husband injected me and it wasn't a big deal! We got used to it fast :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weekly-progesterone-shots#post-1230773 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 17:33:41 +0000 Dandelion 1230773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Because DS was born at 32 weeks, my OB office is having me start weekly progesterone shots. I get my first one on Friday.</p> <p>Has anyone done this? </p>
