Last day of progesterone = anxiety

I felt exactly the same initially and was so worried it was going to affect the pregnancy continuint. But I'm really enjoying not being on it now with how horrible it was to administer and how gross it made me feel😅 xx

We’re almost 20 weeks now and came off 3/4 weeks ago. In one respect also scared but in another thank bloody god because what a palava! If it makes you feel any better today I saw baby kick from the outside which has blown my mind 🤯

I’m feeling exactly the same ! I’m 15+6 today so due to stop this week ! So anxious about it ! It’s hard to have trust in your own body ! I think I’m going to wean off just to help manage my anxiety about it!

I couldn’t wait to stop it. It was horrible to administer and I was changing my underwear several times a day as the white coating in my underwear was unbearable. That said I had a few days where my skin broke out once I came off it but it’s settled down a week later.

Did any of you experience any side effects from the progesterone? Other than it being horrible to administer I’m totally exhausted still at 17+6 and I feel like my sickness is worse with this pregnancy but my consultant said they aren’t side effects. I’ve been told to stay on it until 38 weeks 😩

@Chelsea I had a lot of bloating and sometimes constipation when I was on it. My skin broke out badly and it's now so much better now I'm off it. Can't think of anything else side effect wise, but just made me feel a bit gross but then I think that was probably the nausea too😂

You’ll be 200% ok!! I stopped mine when I got pregnant (hated progesterone) and everything signals to our baby being perfectly healthy and I haven’t had any issues at all. You’ll be ok!!
