hey girls can i ask a question i have been put back on metformin , and i have been having these weird tummy cramps not all the time but now and again then i need to dart too the loo and i have got the runs is this normal cause it keeps freaking me out i dont know if i should bother my mw x

It's normal! When I first started taking metformin I would be running to the loo almost bent double! It did pass but my god it was not pleasant! I'd tell your midwife anyway as if the problem goes on you might need to change medication. I've been on modified release metformin for a while now (glucophage XL) and it did have fewer side effects so might be worth asking about.
Good luck and just stay near the loo for a while!

thanks hun i started them in march for pcos but my gp told me to stop them and when i went to see my consultant he told me to start them again so its like reliving all the side effects again i will mention to my midwife not back their until the 6th october thanks xxx

well my son starts year 1 today eeek he is so big he got put back a year cause he does have some minor learning problems but has improved greatly i was so devastated last year when he started his first day of school i was still suffering from the erpc and i felt really bad cause i missed his first day but today i get too do it and im so happy i get to take him to his first day of school xxxx

Welcome and congratulations to the newbies !

Hope everyone is well today, I'm just popping in to report back on my (unplanned) early scan yesterday at the EPU.

I was so convinced I had another blighted ovum because my symptoms are still virtually non-existant, but the sonographer found the heartbeat straight away and baby was measuring 7+2 rather than 6+6 from my LMP, but I knew I'd ovulated early so that sounds about right.

Just hoping now I can hold it together until my 12 week scan...
