Can anyone help me to find a reference to the use of metformin for a mother 
with PCOS?  A newly delivered primip asked her ob about its use to help 
induce lactogenesisII.  She had taken my breastfeeding class several months 
ago and questioned after class whether there were times when a mother 
would fail to develop a good milk supply.  She then told me that she had 
PCOS  and had been on metformin prior to the pregnancy.  Her OB did order 
the metformin today for this mother but the pedi, ob, and I are all looking for a 
study or reference that would give us information about metformin use in this 
type of situation.  Any help you can give would be greatly apprediated.  Thank 
you.   Bobbie
