I did once but miscarried before I was able to stop. My doc suggested starting to taper at 8 weeks and stopping by 10 weeks.

Why did your doctors recommend Prednisone? Do you have autoimmune issues / hyperactive immune system?

Im trying to stay calm and relax. But I’m having stomach cramps same like period cramps, is it normal?
