Pregnant at 40 and progesterone injections?

Shuntele

I’m considered high risk due to fibroids and a medically induced miscarriage at 33 due to a misdiagnosis of a doctor. My rainbow baby was born in ‘12, (34) was high risk and had preterm labor 33/34 weeks. Water broke but still ended up being induced.

Ob/gyn wants me to start progesterone injections at 16 weeks through to 34/36 weeks. I’m now 8 wks and 5 days along with fibroid cramping, occasional nausea and off and on light spotting.

Anyone had similar issues and what’s your take on the injections? Benefits outweigh the risks,etc?
