Question I have a question about Metformin, pregnancy, and breastfeeding...

I do not have diabetes but I have just been diagnosed with PCOS (not really a surprise) and my doctor put me on Glucophage. I asked her about getting pregnant (we are TTC) and she said it would probably help me to get pregnant. While I would I am thrilled to have this problem diagnosed, I do have some concerns with taking this drug. Mainly, how does it affect breastfeeding (I am currently still breastfeeding my 1 yr old, and I don't plan to wean yet) and pregnancy. I got the impression that the doc wanted me to stay on it even after I got pregnant.. she knows that I am currently breastfeeding.

I want to get pregnant, but I wouldn't want to do anything that would hurt Connor or a new baby!

Thanks!
