Rachel, I'm still on prednisone, and I'll be on it at least until I'm 12/13 weeks pregnant and then I'll start to wean off... maybe... I was able to stop it completely after the first time I used it, and I have to say that I was without pain for quite a while. I did eventually need to start using NSAIDs again, and then eventually back to prednisone once we began IVF, but I did have quite a long time without needing the drug at all.

In case people haven't noticed the subtle change in my sig... I'm just over 7 weeks pregnant from our first ever fresh transfer... was our 5th IVF transfer all up. that this one is super-sticky!
