Question

progesterone cream while pregnant?

So I have a history of preterm labor, maybe also Incompetent cervix. & miscarriage. My Dr told me that for my next pregnancy I will be getting makena shots(progesterone shots) starting at 16 weeks. But I miscarried recently in Nov 2012 at 13 weeks so could I start using progesterone cream before the 16 weeks? & when I start receiving the shots I'll stop the cream? Any advice? I heard good things about the cream.

I had placental abruption at 17+2. My doctor said through out my whole pregnancy with baby #2, he's putting me on promitrium. Which is an oral progesterone tablet. To take once daily, in the evening, bc it's relaxes the uterus but makes you sleepy. Ask about that! I have to start taking them as soon as I get BFP.
