Just some info which I thought might interest ya'll -
I had an NT scan today at 12w2d for my twins. After my scan, the doc came in to talk to me about being in a study. Several large studies have found that women with a history of premature babies have been helped extend their pregnancy significantly by being on Progesterone the second half of their pregnancy. This lab (which is a nationwide chain) is setting up a big study to see if it's the same for twins. (They've already closed a similar study on triplets.) I told him that I'd be willing to be in the study, even though I blame PIO a lot for the misery of my first trimester. I figure if I can trade being miserable for a few months and have my babies in NICU for a few less weeks, I'll take it! I'll find out in October if I'm in the study. They're giving 2/3 of the participants the real meds since they're so sure that they'll be helpful. They haven't finished the study on triplets yet, since some of the participants are still pregnant, but things are looking good there too for PIO helping.
