First Trimester Issues

I'm pregnant for the 3rd time. My first resulted in a beautiful healthy boy. My second ended at 6 weeks in miscarriage. We're so excited now to be 8 weeks along but of course with my last pregnancy I'm nervous about every little thing happening in my body right now. I was experiencing very slight spotting a week ago and was freaking out but it has since stopped and my doctor told me not to worry. To put my mind at ease she had me do a blood test. My hcg is fine but my progesterone is a little low she said.

Has anyone taken a progesterone depository before? If so, what can you tell me about it? I started it this morning but I'm so concerned for what is best for my baby.

Also, I was having a discharge yesterday that just seemed wet and clear and I'm concerned about it. Not sure when or if I should contact my doctor about it.

What are your thoughts????

I am 12 weeks today and have been taking prometrium,orally, since my preg test. I had to take it when preggo with my son (now 2). The pill form makes me feel yucky on top of 1st tri fatigue and all day sickness, BUT will do whatever I need to do for baby. Hope meds don't make you feel yucky. Good luck and positive thoughts to you.

am currently taking it! I started at 6wks 5days. I am now 7wks 2days. I have discharge from the suppositories. I wear a panty liner to keep it from getting on clothing. I feel so much better after starting the suppositories. I was cramping pretty badly which has stopped but also freaked me out. This is my first preg. Have you been having any issues with cramping and was it relieved after a few days of tx?
