On prednisone and no early pregnancy symptoms

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone is in a similar situation to me. I'm currently 6+5w and on prednisone, aspirin and progesterone. I have no morning sickness at all which really worries me as I did with my DD. I've had 3 miscarriages so freaking out a bit.
Any positive stories are very welcome!

Pred suppressed most of my pregnancy symptoms. I started to feel rather poorly from about week 12 after I weaned off the meds.

I had no morning sickness in my current pregnancy or previous one and was on prednisolone for both. I definitely read it can suppress pregnancy symptoms

Thank you @DaffodilSunshine and @WutheringMights that makes me feel more reassured. How far along are you? What dosage are you on? I'm on 25 per day.
I have a scan booked for Wednesday but so scared.

I was on 20mg a day and started weaning down from 10 weeks until completely off by 12 weeks. Mine was for implantation failure rather than miscarriage though. I'm now nearly 36 weeks

I was on 20mg a day and weaned off during week 11. Completely off the meds by 12+3. My due date is tomorrow but baby seems far to comfy in there at the moment.

I took prednisolone for a combination of miscarriages and failed implantation.

Wow congratulations and good luck both of you! You're almost there!

Hi @MNBV777 how are things going with your pregnancy? I’m currently under the same cocktail of drugs with no symptoms x

MNBV777 · 30/11/2022 18:08

Hi @RoloRF3 ,
It's going well! I'm 14 + 2 and still have pretty much no symptoms! I weaned off the prednisone by 12 weeks. What week are you? How are you feeling?

RoloRF3 · 30/11/2022 18:22

Wow, that’s amazing and makes me very hopeful 🤞🏼 I have absolutely no symptoms whatsoever, feel totally normal - I’m 7 weeks and have a scan next week x

MNBV777 · 30/11/2022 21:46

Good luck! I hope it goes well...I'll have my fingers crossed :)

Hey not sure you’re still following this thread hope your pregnancy went smoothly and you and baby are well.

wanted to know when you started the prednisolone in your cycle as I’ve been advised to take it along with aspirin and progesterone due to implantation failure and miscarriage

Just found this thread and wondering if you’re still posting, @WutheringMights ? I’m in a very similar situation- weaning off pred and feeling really sick. I had some sickness earlier, but I thought it was gone by now- no such luck. Did it stick around your whole pregnancy?

WutheringMights · 27/05/2024 12:51

I'm sorry you're going through the sickness stage as well @Pupsandturtles

To give you hope, the sickness did subside significantly after week 16. Certain things could set me off even beyond week 20 though but I was never sick - just the odd wretch while cleaning my teeth.

Just wondering how you all got on ladies. Hopefully you are all busy mums of hapoy babies now so you may well not see this. Just wondering if you had IVF or natural conception? I just started first course of post ovulation pred, already on low dosexaspirin andcwill be on cyclogest when I get a positive test.
Did you take pred from ovulation or positive test or other.
