Pregnant, 37, on progesterone

Jen

So I'm 37, second pregnancy, I have a sweet 18-month toddler. My OB immediately put me on progesterone suppositories this time because of my "age." My blood work at 4 weeks came in great, 28.6 for progesterone but she's making me do nightly suppositories as an extra precaution. The issue is I feel super bloated, gained 4 lbs. in 2 weeks and feel really anxious too. I'm currently 6.3 weeks. Do you think this progesterone is necessary???Everything is going well and I had a very healthy previous pregnancy.

Thanks!!!
