Brandy,


Were you given any reasons for the births being early?


If your Doctors know the reason, maybe they have some answers for future?

Hi Brooke, have you talked to your OB about how you are feeling?

Jean,
Just so you know...the progesterone suppositories work just as well as the shots. I went into preterm labor at 20 weeks with triplets. At 21 weeks, my cervix was 5mm (not 4.5cm it was suppose to be). I was given progesterone suppositories by a high risk practice in NYC. The docs believe the suppositories work better, because it is absorbed right where it is needed.

Best of luck,
Laura
