I never had to take that shot. My first was 37.5 weeks and I had preterm labor six times and had steroids. Second no preterm labor except the day he was born at 34 weeks. I have already started preterm labor twice with this one. At 28 & 29 weeks. I will be 30 on Monday. My doctor won't let me go past 38 weeks because I am a diabetic. She started me on precardia today and I am getting steroid shots next week....no progesterone.
My first was born at 34 weeks and i took the shot with my second child and she was born at 36 weeks and im 31 weeks with my 3rd hopefully he stays in with the shots uhh like my second child
I've been on them since about 16-17 weeks. I'm 32 weeks now and will continue the shots until 36 weeks. I delivered my 1st child 9 days late, my 2nd child 4 weeks early. So this time they recommended progesterone shots.
I've been taking it since I've been 17 weeks. I'm now 31 weeks. My first pregnancy was a spontaneous miscarriage with no warning. My second was good. My third I went into preterm labor. So they were careful with this one and started me on the P17 shot.
