Progesterone - cause cramping?

JJ

I recently got my miracle positive and am taking progesterone to help keep everything in place. I’ve had LOTS of cramping. I know many women get cramping in early pregnancy. However, I’ve noticed a few people asking about a connection between progesterone & cramping (I’m using the intra-vaginal kind) - has anyone cramped as a result of progesterone? Wondering if that’s why mine are so intense, or if it’s just the way of my pregnancy - and either way I’m hoping it’s not a bad sign. Thanks!

UPDATE: I’m 35 weeks with a healthy baby! I had tons of cramping the first 3 months, just to give hope to other mamas in the same boat, doesn’t necessarily mean anything! 🙌
