I was on progesterone shots for the entire first trimester.  No side effects except the occasional soreness at the injection site.  Nothing to worry about

I start my 17p shots in about a week and a half (they don't start them for my until 16 weeks,  but I was on another form of progesterone from the time I found out I was pg until 12 weeks) I had them with DS too. I never had any side effects except for a sore butt like daisiema said LOL if you are getting them weekly like I did make sure that you alternate hips to make it more bareable LOL! Its really not that bad, usually only hurts for a day or too and heating pads and ice help alot!
