I have been diagnosed with PCOS also and have been taking metformin for about 2 1/2 years but I wasn't ovulating. My Dr put me on clomid feb 2009 and when I went to get my progesterone tested it came back at a measely two. I took clomid again two months later and then since my progesterone came up higher that time they said that we were making progress. They put me on clomid again for three consecutive months of june july and august. June July I had no sucess but each month my progesterone would be rising. I went in at the beginning of september to get my progesterone done for the last time and my dr. told me it was amazing- it was at 38! I went in 2 weeks later and by then I missed my period by 5 days or so and I took a pregnancy test not thinking anything of it. I was just so afraid of hearing a NEGATIVE AGAIN.. like I have been for the past 5 years of trying to concieve. It was a positive! I was about one month pregnant already and now I am 8 1/2 weeks pregnant. I took my first ultrasound because I went to the emergency room one morning because I was getting terrible cramps in my lower pelvic area but more concentrated on my left ovary side. They finally took an ultrasound at that time I was bawling out crying. I thought something was wrong with my baby, either I was having a miscarriage, or I was going to lose my baby altogether from having an eptopic pregnancy. I tried to calm myself but didn't look at the ultrasound screen but was prepared for bad news and then she looked at me and asked me how much babies I want and I was just inshock and looked at the monitor to see two sacs. I was extatic and in such shock! I was not expecting that, that was such a surprise I almost passed out. I remember that overwelming joy I felt and the disbelief. Nothing could ruin my day after that.
I cannot wait to meet my babies .. their due date is may 21, 2010 but they will come sooner since they're twins. I am so excited!
