Makena shots again

Brittany

My 2nd baby was born at 35 weeks, so that had me get weekly shots starting at 16 weeks to help prevent preterm labor. It worked my 3rd baby was born 39 +6. Pregnant with my 4th baby and my doctor wants me to get them again since it worked last time.

Last time the shots were in the muscle in my hip and hurt sooo bad (unless 1 certain nurse did it) for days, sometimes until the day before the next shot.

This time (2years later) the shots are an auto injection in the fatty part of the back of my arm. Fingers crossed it won't hurt nearly as much this time. 12 weeks 2 day now so first shot is in less than 4 weeks.

Anyone else getting makena shots????
