Hi ladies,
I was 113 pounds (5'2) pre pregnancy. My doctor started me on prometrium (progesterone suppositories) the day of my BFP. I took them until almost week 13. I have eaten very healthy and worked out 5 days a week for most of the first trimester, but I have gained 10 pounds to date.
I am worried because that's a huge chunk of what you are healthily supposed to gain during pregnancy for my size.
I know weight gain is a side effect for those pills, but I'm wondering if anyone else had this experience and what the overall outcome was once stopping them.
