I've had 12 shots and only get itchy. The first few shots I THINK the same day and next day I was more tired than usual, but I'm always tired so its hard to tell.

It is still possible to get it back up. ?At 20 weeks I was 1.2 w/funneling. ?After 1 week of strict trendelenburg was back up to 2.5. ?Dr allowed me back home and was only told bedrest, shower every couple days, stairs once a day and could get up to bathroom. ?Two weeks later down to .6!! ?Same thing, dr threatening hospital etc. ?I have a 19 month old and and with the holidays coming up said no and demanded a hospital bed be delivered to my...

Welcome back :)

I have super bad itching at my sites too. As long as it's not infected I'm good. Thanks for your input. I guess it affects us all differently. Hopefully the side effects will lessen as time goes on.

Throughout this whole pregnancy I've been counting down the milestones - and it has helped tremendously - 32 weeks today = 95% survival rate if she makes an early appearance 4 more Progesterone Shots 4-5 more weeks until stitch is removed 8 more weeks until due date How about everyone else?

I had a nurse come out, some people have there dh do them for them. The needle didnt hurt, but you do feel the meds going in. The area was a little sore for about 24 hours but feels fine now. This was my first one and I had just got the cerclage so I was already kind of out of it but for the most part I didnt notice any other effects from the shot.

I started progesterone (17p) shots at 16 weeks of pregnancy.? This and a cerclage?came highly recommended after I had my angel baby at 19.5 weeks last year due to IC.? I take my shot weekly.? ? Both my OB and perinatologist have had positive results in their high risk patients.? So much that most patients have had to be induced after having?the cerclage and weekly 17p shots.? With that said, my OB has already scheduled my induction date.?

i'd luck out... b/c I would be high risk, I will have to go to my doctor's every week anyway, and that's when they will administer the shot... and my prenatal care under my insurance goes, you pay your co-pay for the appt that confirms your pregnancy, then all the other appt are covered under that...? oh boy, irritability??? haahaa, i was cranky enough with just being pregnant last time!!

Congrats to all of you....you really give me hope that even with IC I will be able to go ahead and have a living baby at some point! Keep up all the good work ladies :)

Going to a high risk doctor would probably be your best bet. I had a preventative cerclage at 14 weeks. I go to my ob/gyn and I go to my perinatal doc. I have to go about every two weeks to see the perinatal doctor. Unfortunately the preventative cerclage doesn't always mean no bed rest. I have been on bed rest since I was at 21 weeks. I am now at 29 weeks. I had funneling in my cervix and they wanted to make sure it didn't make it...
