I would like to hear from the woman who have PCOS and have had children im very interested in knowing how it happened. my partner and i are having difficulties and dont know what to do. PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome)

Answer
ok, firstly I am aware I am not a woman :) but my wife has PCOS.

She started taking clomid 50mg (cycle days 3-8) last year, we got pregnant twice and unfortunately lost both (2012 was a rough year).

This year the 50mg wasn't working, upped to 100mg still not working consistently. So they put her on metformin too (500mg twice daily). We went for an ultrasound to look for follicles on cycle day, no mature follicles but some tiny ones. I asked if she could ovulate late and the drs told me it should make her ovulate on day 14. Great, now what do we do? About a week later she gets the egg white mucous (I know tmi) and I said "hey why not, what we got to lose"... we did a pregnancy test negative. So she takes progesterone to restart cycle and gets 'flu' and throwing up a few days later . The regular dr kept asking "are you sure you're not pregnant?" so we did a test POSITIVE ! I guess they were wrong, you can ovulate late.

Today we saw our 19 week baby girl wiggling around on ultrasound.

Sorry for the long story, first they'll try either metformin or clomid, or both but it may take awhile to find the correct dose, find a reproductive endocrinologist not just a OB/GYN and if you do get pregnant do what I did insist on taking progesterone through first trimester, or as worst monitor your levels closely. I beleive that, and we kept taking metformin too, saved our baby this time :) There is a high risk of miscarriage with PCOS, like 40% but progesterone brings it down to the same rate as everyone else, I think 16%.

CPS troubles? Please Read!?

Okay, back in September of 2012, my husband and I were thrown into a whirlwind. It was around 6:00 or 7:00 a.m. and we left our toddler (he was 2 years, 8 months at the time) in our apartment asleep in his bedroom while we took the dog out to potty. Well our nosy, alcoholic, dope-using neighbor (who had just had her son taken away by CPS for the 2nd or 3rd time) decided to call the cops and told them we had been gone for hours, when in reality we weren't gone for more than 5 - 10 minutes. Police men were swarming around and they even did a search of our apartment for any "incriminating evidence" (I'm guessing she said we did drugs, too.)

Of course, nothing was found, no evidence to support drug use or child abuse but we still had to go to court for the incident. We were charged with the lowest class of misdemeanor child neglect and received fines of $300 each ($600 for the both of us). We paid the fines off.

Now, I'm pregnant with our 2nd (and last) child, and my C-section is scheduled in 3 weeks. I haven't had a lot of doctor visits, due to the fact that my insurance doesn't cover prenatal care, and I've had to pay full price for everything (I've made 5 official doctor visits so far, will be 7 or 8 by the due date, plus 1 visit to a crisis pregnancy center, and a few ER visits for pregnancy-related scares. Before I found my current doctor, I called around and was actually denied service because I couldn't pay the outrageous fees upfront/was already too far along in my pregnancy).

I was told by a nurse that because I've had so few visits, that it's considered child neglect and they would have to report me to CPS? I'm afraid that if I'm reported, I may lose my children or have to go through another battle with the courts.

I'm 21 years old, I don't abuse drugs, I don't smoke cigarettes, rarely have alcohol, my husband has a
stable job, we have a stable apartment life, we always have food available, running water, electricity, etc.
Our son has his own room (he actually has the master-sized bedroom, we took the smaller room), toys, plenty of clothes, his own bed, everything! We have a new crib and changing table for our daughter, a bassinet, stroller/car seat combo, a baby bather, a swing, diapers (both cloth and disposable), wipes, clothes, blankets, a safety kit with baby monitors, just about everything you could think of!
What are the chances that CPS will actually take my children?
EDIT:
A Red Scar - No, that's seriously what happened. In the court room, when they read the police report, we actually heard people snickering over the stupidity of the charge, and even the judge had a smirk. CPS didn't charge us, the state of Arizona did. CPS did a home visit, and they "determined that it is in the child's best interests to remain with the parents, but the case of child neglect was substantiated (we told them the truth, we left him asleep in the apartment while to took the dog out to pee, which could have potentially resulted in the unplanned harm of the child, which is in turn considered child neglect to a certain extent)
EDIT:
Also, CPS didn't get involved until after the trial was over. They asked us all kinds of questions about how much money was being made, electricity, food, if we received government help or not, if we had a supportive family, etc. They inspected our son's bedroom and looked in our kitchen cabinets, too.
They gave us a bunch of papers with resources on them, gave us a card, and a month or so later sent us a letter in the mail saying our case was closed.

Answer
Have you applied for WIC or state medicaid? good chance you might be eligible. That will help. As for doc visits. I doubt that would be considered neglect. Many moms delver at home and never see CPS at their door.
