Pregnant after IF

Stopping Metformin?

I have pcos, and have been taking 2,000 mg of extended release Metformin daily since before I became pregnant. I saw my endo today who said he recommends I stop but wants me to check with my OBGYN, I haven't met her yet, I'm only 10 weeks, first apt is this Thursday. Curious if any of you girls stopped Metformin or decided to continue through pregnancy and what is the reason. I'm nervous to change anything, the endo said its a safe drug during pregnancy, old school of thought was that it could help prevent miscarriage, new school of thought is it isn't necessary. I don't like change! Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
