Nadine, I wish you the best of luck. It will happen when God wants it to happen. I think it'll be this month for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed.


Nadine - May 19th, 2005 8:48 AM

I've been havin troubles my questions aren't being posted.
Donna, how are you. My period came on Sat hope this is the last cycle i see i hope i can get pregnant now that i am ovulating. Please God


Donna - May 19th, 2005 9:23 AM

Nadine, Just keep trying, and trying, and trying. When your period is finished, I would just start trying a little after that. And don't give up....it will happen this time!

Thank God for metformin. This is my 2nd pregnancy my first was conceived by the help of clomid. I"m overwheight and diagnosed with pcos i was put on metformin and voila a month later I am pregnant. I thought metformin was making me sick to my stomach but it was actually the pregnancy.


Nadine - May 24th, 2005 9:00 AM

hi Donna my period has finished now thank goodness! I have bought ovulation predictor kits which i will start using tonight(day 11) I don't even know when i'm due to ovulate as my cycle has not come for so long but i'll give it a try please god.
Wilma what dosage of metformin was you on? I really hopethat i'm as blessed as you. All my love and wishes to you.
Donna hows the pregnancy and have you been to see the doc yet?


Donna - May 24th, 2005 10:51 AM

Nadine, My first dr appt is actually in one week, May 31st. I can't wait. I am so excited. Not really to see the dr, just to maybe hear the baby's heartbeat. I have just recently started getting sick, but I'll take it!!! It's definetly not as bad as it was when I was taking metformin. But like I said, it's worth it. Best of luck Nadine and just keep trying and trying. You should be ovulating very soon, so good luck and keep writing.

Samantha.. I just read your post and cannot believe the Doctor told you that. I have PCOS and was put on Metformin in January. I am 5'6'' and 125 lbs, so by no means over-weight. That is incredibly insencitive of him. I have heard that Metformin will help you lose weight, but that is not the only reason why someone is put on it. I'm sorry that you had to deal with that.
Now, with that out of the way! I am so glad to have found this website. No one knows what I am going through so it's nice to find a bunch of women out there in the same shoes. My husband and I have been trying for 13 months. I did one round of clomid before going on Met. SInce on Met i have done 3 rounds. I had a Progesterone test done yesterday to see if I have ovulated this time.. all the other times I have not. I'm very happy for the ladies that Met worked for and hope i am as lucky one day soon. Best of luck to everyone out there TTC!

Hi, I was diagnosed with PCOS. I started taking Metformin May 2004. I got pregnant by IUI in September but miscarried in October. My periods were very irregular. However, after the miscarriage starting in January I did start ovulating on my own. I have ovulated every month now except for March. I have no idea what happened there? My doctor said sometimes it can take 6 - 9 months to kick in. I guess so, it took me that long. Still no preg, still hoping.... The only side effects I had was having to go to the bathroom. Hope that helps.


marie - May 25th, 2005 4:53 AM

hello. its my 31st day and no mens yet. im on metformin for 1 month with clomid on my 3/7 days. i have my pregancy test, but i got very light sign of strip on positive. does it mean i'm pregnant or not? pls pray for me. thanks


Nadine - May 25th, 2005 9:10 AM

Marie if you got a strip for positive then your preg even though it was light it's still there good luck and take another one!
I done an ovulation test last night which was day 11 of my cycle and it detected an lh surge which means i was due to ovulate within 24-36 hrs of doing it. I'm soooooo confused as that would mean that i ovulated on day 12 or something which is today.
Is that poss? Anywho i had sex last night so hopefully i'm in with a chance.
Can someone get back to me and educate me a little on the ovulation process as i hope it wasn't a fake result. Love and wishes to all


Donna - May 25th, 2005 1:41 PM

Marie, If your test showed even a light strip, chances are you are 100 percent pregnant. My first test I took was very light, and since then I've taken 5 more tests, each which kept getting darker and darker. So I would recommend taking a few more in a few days. Nadine, if you were due to ovulate in 24 hours and you had intercourse yesterday, sperm will stay in the body for 24-48 hours, so you may have a very good chance of conceiving. good luck to all of you.


Drew - May 25th, 2005 7:35 PM

Samantha, I just read your post about the doc who was so rude. I myself am overweight, though I never used to be. Then I found out I have pcos with insulin resistance, and that is what made me keep packing on the pounds. I started it on the 5th of this month, and already have lost 7 pounds. To me it really has made a difference, although the nausea is rather annoying. Try to find a reliable doc who will do the proper testing for insulin resistant pcos, and who will treat you like a human. No woman deserves to be treated like that regardless of size. Hope things work out for you!


lisa - May 26th, 2005 4:51 PM

I am 25 and I was diagosed w/pcos. I was put on chlomid for 5 mos and then my 6th month i was put on metformin(500mg) and i got pregnant:) now i am 5mos preg. so my advise would be to get on it. i didn't have any side effects. good luck:)


Donna - June 6th, 2005 10:12 AM

Nadine,
Any luck yet? Let me know how it's going?


Nadine - June 8th, 2005 8:19 AM

Hi Donna,
My periods due on tuesday, so i'm playing the waiting game which is no fun i'm tempted to do a test but i'm trying to wait and be patient. I've been getting backache and i threw up last week and i only ever throw up if i drink too much so here's hoping. Please God.
How are you and baby?


Donna - June 8th, 2005 10:43 AM

Nadine, I've now started getting morning sickness, that lasts all day. It's weird cuz I'm almost 12 weeks along. Most people get sick at the beginning. I had my first dr appt last week and that made it real for me. Now my next appt is Monday where hopefully we can hear the heartbeat. I'm so excited. Well I'll be crossing my fingers you don't get your period on Tuesday. Good luck.
