Anyone on progesterone suppositories?

Amos - so glad to hear the scan was good what an ordeal that must have been!
Are you on the waxy/cocoa butter suppositories or on prometrium.
 
I've never heard of that either. Like the other girls, I usually get yellow when it leaks out.
 
I am on something called Crinone. It is something in a tube that I can't even see- it goes in my hoo and I squeeze the tube and it comes out. I was on Endometrin and I had no problems except the discharge. It was a chalky looking horse pill.

I had samples of that in the beginning but my insurance wouldn't pay for it so I got stuck with the pill. Man, that tube thing was the best! If I ever have to go on supplements again, I'm just going to pay for that out of pocket, it's completely worth it!

Congrats again on the :flow: Reedsgirl! Too bad there isn't a flower ticker for two, one for baby A and baby B! :winkwink:

How do you feel about getting off the progesterone? I do the PIO shots, which are no fun...But I am afraid to stop. My RE told me to stop @ 16 weeks, so I have a while. Still scared.[/QUOTE]

Hi there!

I PANICKED Wednesdy morning to find a teeny bit of brown spotting in the morning when I went to the bathroom (sorry, TMI). And of course, my OB office is closed on Wednesdays. So I silently worried until today, when I saw my spud moving and hiccuping at my NT scan! I'd say I feel like I'm out of the woods, but that will of course jinx me and I'll spot tomorrow, so I won't say that. But I AM feeling a lot better... I'm thrilled not to have to worry about what time to go to bed, about not falling asleep on the couch without putting in one of the suppositories, and the prospect of some nookie again! Lol.

I don't blame you for being scared... I mean, we take the progesterone to support the pregnancy, and then we stop??? Talk about nerve-wracking...
 
Hey Dietrad I thought about putting up 2 tickers since Baby A was bigger but it says my sig is too big then. :(
 
:trouble: that stinks!!!! Would it make any difference if you had two tickers that were the smaller ones instead of full size?
 
I don't know I will play with it and try some more...I have really wanted 2 tickers....think it would be ok if I put them at their respective weeks?

Oh and welcoms Lisa!
 
If it were me, I would put the babies at their prospective weeks.

Lisa, I hope you don't get any more spotting either! But just remember, brown is always okay!
 
Reeds - your ticker is only too big because you'll go past 4 lines... you have too many bump buddies :haha:
 
Yeah I know. LOL BUt I am not willing to give my buddies up either. I found a awesome ticker that shows both babies but it is only in hmtl. :( how sad is that.
 
Grrr... hmmm.. what if you shorten the way you write the list maybe? Group the text bump buddy with the other bump buddies?
Bump Buddies with: XXXXXX,
EDD April 15, 2011 due date buddies with dobchops = EDD 4/15/11 with Dobchops
etc?
Maybe remove the BnB member one? Or stick it down at the end of the list of buddies?
just see if you can work it a little? Smaller font on the names?

I hate how annoying it is to tweak your signature...
 
Ok, I'm officially an idiot.... I found a much easier way to open my suppositories... :dohh:
 
Okay I'm dragging this thread back to the top because I'm supposed to stop my progesterone on Friday when I'll be 13 weeks. Fertility Specialist said stop at 8 1/2 weeks, OB said stop at 12, but I had enough pills to get me exactly to 13 weeks so have decided to just use them all up.

Anyone else stopped, or getting ready to? I'm kind of scared, but also looking forward to not having to put them in anymore!
 
Ooh, you reminded me I have to go drop off my prescription. I think I have 8 left which should get me to 10 weeks, then my FS prescribed me 14 more to get me to 12.
I'll be nervous to stop, but grateful at the same time! LOL

Ok.. this is weird, but I'm wondering if any of you doing the suppositories started having some kind of reaction to them?
Its fine except when its fresh and kind of leaking out... it kind of burns a little... like maybe I'm becoming allergic to them? Its not totally uncomfortable and it lasts maybe 20 minutes... I'm almost done with them so I'm just wondering if anyone else has this? :blush:
