I have read stories when i was first diagnosed about 3 years ago about some pcos women finding it hard to carry. . One lady told me she went through 6 mcs before having her 4 children.
Im just still amazed an egg managed to find its way out of the mess.. I had a checkup ultrasound a year ago and its on both ovaries and they are riddled with them. I always thought they wouldnt work after seeing that. My dr said just try naturally for 6 months then we will talk. Well i was still detoxing from 5 years on the pill i thought. Lol

I'm 18+6 with my second.  I was surprised with both pregnancies as we weren't trying and I knew it would be hard for me to get pregnant.  First pregnancy went great and have a healthy happy 1 1/2 yr old boy.  So far this pregnancy hasn't had any problems either.  Congratulations!

Iwas diagnosed two years ago. Im currently 20+3 with my second baby. I spoke with my OB/GYN about it and she said that having pcos wouldn't affect anything with the baby. It just hard for us to get pregnant :) Good Luck I'm sure everything will go fine.

Hey, I too have PCOS. I have a healthy, full of life 6year old son, and have just found out I am about 8weeks along with number 2!!! I have a dating ultrasound on Tuesday!
I didn't find out with my first pregnancy until I was 11weeks and 3 days! I just figured when my periods didn't come, my body was just being its normal contrary self. So in the mean time I pretty much chain smoked and drank and did all number of party things. All stopped straight away as soon as I found out. I had a text book pregnancy and a very quick birth with my son. Just hope this one goes the same.
Simple thing my mum shared with me. "Don't borrow trouble" enjoy being preggers!!
