Thanks guys.
Porsche- GL with o. Catch the egg, love! Glad the spotting has stopped.
Julia- Thanks hon. I have started bleeding now, so at least I won't have to take anything to get that happening.
Hi everyone else! Many of you must just about be TWWing by now. How's it going?

AFM: We had only told our parents and my sisters about the pregnancy, and last night I had to let them all know there wasn't one any more. My mother in law and step mum were devastated, which set me off again. If I get pregnant again I wont tell them untill 12 weeks, it's not fair to put them through that again.
I have thrown myself into researching what went wrong. I didn't know that the m/c rate in women with PCOS is possibly as high as 45%! How did the dr not tell me that? I have found that women who take metformin have a much lower chance of m/c (normal level), so I'm going to ask my specialist about that. It can take a few months to reduce the insulin levels and problems with ovaries, but I couldn't try again straight away anyway. Who else is on metformin? Is it terrible expensive? I'm not taking clomid again untill I get this resolved becasue obviously there is some underlying thing going on.

I'm so sorry for the long rant all about ME. I just had to get it off my chest.

hi bec

i have been on metformin for about 18 months - 2 years. When i first got preg i stopped taking it because i was unsure if i should take it or not (didnt see the dr for 2 weeks) in the time i had stopped i did m/c, dont know if it was caused by the not taking metformin or because when i found out i was in emergency and had x-rays and scans and morphine. But i do think taking it in the first place had everything to do with me getting preg.

As for cos it is about $10 or less $5 concession for the less expensive brand (diaformin) and you get about 50 tabs i think.

The only prob i have with it is if i dont take it with food i i get an upset tummy and end up on the toilet lots.
