i have a history of preterm labor/delivery. my last pregnancy i was prescribed progesterone injections to calm my uterus down. i didn't deliver till 36 weeks. (previous deleveries were at 21 weeks and 32 weeks) with this pregnancy they automaticaly started me on the injections again...i had thinning and dilating problems still last time. but this pregnancy nothing as of yet and i'm 25 weeks. has anyone else used these injections and have them work?? do they REALLY make a difference or could it be because i'm less stressed?? my previous 3 were higher stress times...i'm not working this one. hmmm...

I'm sure that there is a reason for the injections. They are most likely working in addition to less stress. Good luck!

Sorry to hear about your PTL, as I have been thru it 3x myself.
I never heard of the P17 injections before, i wish someone would have told me if indeed they DO work.I was on bedrest with all 3 babies which was not in the least bit fun .
Good luck and stay off the feet ( as best you can , of course).

I know a woman who used them, had preterm labor with her first 2 and was able to deliver this baby full term. GOOD LUCK! :)

I had them with my 4th pregnancy due to 3 preemies and I also stopped getting them my 36th week. I went into labor a week and a day later.
