I also took MET while trying to get pregnant, but as soon as I found out the dr. took me off the MET. There is not enough studies he said to be safe to keep me on them. I did do progestone sup. for the first 12 weeks to keep the pregnancy strong.

I am now 27 weeks.

I am so happy that you are pregnant though, sorry about your loss.
