I'm on the 17p progesterone shots. Different brand than Makena, but same med. My water broke at 35 weeks with my son. I've been on the shots since 16 weeks, currently 26 weeks and have another 10 weeks of shots to go. No complications or signs of pre-term labor so far and the in-home nurse that administers the shots says they are typically very effective.

I'm on the Makena inj. I started them at 16 weeks. I did great worked ft thru the school year and never slowed down until last Saturday morning I went into preterm labor at 32w3d. They were able to stop the consistent contractions but added Procardia every 6 hours and put me on bedrest. I really do think the Makena inj have gotten me this far though. In my past 3 pregnancies I've went into preterm labor at 22wks and that didn't happen this time. I'm please wth the medication. I haven't had any side effects either.
