Leslie,
I am on the Lovenox which is a differnt style of the Heparin. I will be on this till two weeks before I give birth,.
I am on lovenox also. I think they said I will be on that until a month before and then they switch me to Heparin which is shorter lasting. Then I dont know, sorry

I am taking metformin. I am definatly taking it up till 12 weeks, but am hoping that my OB will agree to let me take it longer. I have read articles on it and the metformin in women with PCOS cuts the risk of first trimester miscarriage way down from like 64% to 12% or less which is about the average.http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0BJI/is_8_31/ai_76758560 It is also said to aid in not developing Gestational Diabetes. For me it has also helped to maintain my weight and I am afraid if I go off it I will gain like crazy :) My RE told me it would be okay to stop at 9 weeks but I talked them into letting me at least continue through the first trimester http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0CYD/is_16_36/ai_78050813
Hope some of this helps.
