Do any of you have experience with vaginal progesterone supplementation? I've been ttc a 2nd child for 1.5 years, with 2 miscarriages in this timeframe. Doctor offered this since my workups are clear.

What’s your age?
What workups (eg AFC, HSG, day 3 blood work, genetics on miscarriage)?
Was that a primary care, Ob/gyn, reproductive endocrinologist, or other?

I’d consider getting a second opinion from a reproductive endocrinologist.

Day 3 blood work is hormone level measurements on third day of your cycle.

Good that you’re waiting on RE - that’s a no regrets move if you’re not successful between now and then.

I’ve done progesterone but it was in context of IVF.

It helped someone I know . Same experience as you mentioned . Two early miscarriages and the progesterone helped. They took the oral version vs the vaginal . Hang in there and good luck OP!

My doc says research is mixed, unless you have known issue with progesterone. Which by the way, can be overlooked, depending on the depth of your workup.
I took progesterone supplements to lengthen my luteal phase to achieve pregnancy, and throughout the first trimester.
The downside is that they are kind of gross.

How many cycles did it take to work for you? My luteal phase has been short (~10 days exactly) since my last miscarriage in December and my basal body temps tracked through the Ava bracelet are also lower which is why I thought progesterone may help.

So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

I & My girl friend can’t stop fighting for few weeks. We decided to take a little break being away from each other.

Breakup? Feeling terrible thinking about breaking up when she is pregnant, but I’m not ready for a baby.

Do you think using “him/her” for “he/she” (ex: “her is playing” “him not here yet”) is something that kids usually grow out of? Or does it need direct intervention? I have 2 students who exhibit this error, who otherwise should be dismissed. Normally I’d just keep them on and work on it alongside other goals, but they don’t have any other goals, and with COVID, and my upcoming maternity leave in March, a more compact caseload would be advantageous.

Anyone have three kids and working in big law? I just found out I’m pregnant with no. 3 and it’s been a lot trying to juggle morning sickness, but based on my experience, I know this is only the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come. My husband and I are elated, but the anxiety of being a mom of 3 kids and working in big law is preventing me from truly enjoying this news. It would be good to know what it’s really like having 3 kids so that I can evaluate how long I really have left in big law.
