Progesterone Shots- Question.

This is my fourth pregnancy. Let me tell you ladies. When they say all pregnancy are totally different. There are right! Lol. All day morning sickness is kicking my ass. The doctor gave me Diclegis I never had before I always toke Zofran.  Are you ladies taking that now or had in the past? A little background on my other three pregnancy; I had all midwives for all three. I honestly never wanted a doctor for the fact that I don’t like them being so pushed doing your pregnancy and labor. This time around since I moved I have to have a doctor because the three hospitals never me don’t have an all midwives group. Blows!  So with my oldest son I gave birth at 38.5 weeks, Second son 38 weeks and my baby girl I had her at 36.5 weeks. All three healthy pregnancy and easy labor. No compilations or anything. I had my first OB appt. This past Monday, She informs me that she wants me to start taking progesterone shots starting at 16 weeks. I never had that before. I don’t know if I want too. I don’t know how to feel about it to be honest. I don’t know if maybe the doctor vs. midwives is. I’m a little off edge about it.

    I'm confused, did she say why? Is your progesterone low? I always thought that was for early pregnancy like just through 1st tri?

    I have no idea though, and I would be asking a million questions.

    That seems pretty strange to me. This is around the time when people stop the progesterone.... I finished mine last weekend. I'd ask why for sure.

    To be honest all she told me was that so I won't deliver early like last time. Next appointment I will definitely be asking questions.
