Only five more shots

I don't know if I've even mentioned this in my posts but I have a nurse visit us every Friday morning for a weekly injection of a drug nicknamed P-17. It's a form of progesterone that they have developed and tested that can assist in the prevention of preterm labor. It keeps your progesterone levels from dipping too low, which causes labor to begin. It's kind of a "big shot" but not anything too terrible. I've had 15 of them now and pretty excited to only have 5 more to go! Every little thing is a milestone at this point to me and a reason to celebrate!
