Thanks ladies! I'm still bummed about the diagnosis, but like my DH said it's kind of what we expected

So far I'm on the lowest dose of Synthroid, but my doctor says he is confident that it will need to be upped - we're just seeing how I respond to the med and I'll have to have another draw in a few weeks. Bex, do you know if you get extra scans if you're hypothyroid as well? It must be nice to see your LO more often!

Sweetpea, how much is fertility testing? Too bad you guys don't have a health care system like ours

Damn, Rachel and Bex your pregnancies are flying by!

Oh I don't know. Every test costs money. Like a lot. I have insurance but I have a ded so I'm gonna guess a lot of the tests will go towards that first. Meaning.... I still end up paying a good chunk of it myself. It's so stupid, no one can have anything major done medically in this country without going into debt. Unless you live off the government and then it's free.

It's frustrating! My ded starts over in Jan so I may as well wait this month out. Annual is scheduled for January 13th so that's a good time as any to start the testing

Does being hypothyroid affect baby's growth? If so, you may get extra scans. I am not sure, and different countries do different things. My friend in the UK is hypothyroid and has been for ages, so they have been taking her blood regularly, and upping her dose when required, but she doesn't think she will get any more scans now, unless there is a problem. She is at the same stage in pregnancy as me. I am happy to get more scans, they will occur at approximately 30, 34 and 38 weeks, but judging by my rapidly growing belly, this baby is growing just fine

I know what your feeling sweetpea, the healthcare in this country is a joke. We had to spend a lot of money between co pays, deductibles, premiums, and whatever my health insurance didn't cover at all like fertility treatments. We probably spent 4-5k on healthcare last year and the extra expenses aside from the premiums was because of me dh didn't spend barely anything. Healthcare shouldn't be allowed to cost that much

Rachel789 · Dec 6th, 2012, 08:28 AM

Today is the day we get to find out the gender I am so excited!! It is not for about 6 more hours I will let you girls know tonight or tomorrow morning what we are having

I am so upset though because dh took a half day and we were going to get dinner and maybe do some shopping for the baby after and I came down with a cold which I am sure I got from the stupid airplane I was on on Monday

i hate being sick

sweetpea417 · Dec 6th, 2012, 09:52 AM

Sorry you are sick Rachel

BUT I am SO excited to find out what you are having! Keep us posted

horseypants · Dec 6th, 2012, 13:12 PM

yay rachel and rmsh, im glad you are back in action on our little thread. sweetpea, this SUCKS doesnt it. i just had all the blood tests done and i hope i dont get a heart attack when i see the bill. i havent even scheduled the appointment with the fertility doc (that's what's next) cause it's all going to be out of pocket and we're barely making ends meet before the medical bills. -i'm asking my dad to help with our wedding.....and i want to blurt out to him - or maybe we should skip all this and you can pay my doctor to see if i can have a baby!!!!! a lot of times, i dont want to get married at all if im not going to get to have kids. what for. my husband doesnt carry me to bed like haus's and i still have to work anyway

. haus, sounds like you are on the right track and praise canada for taking care of its people!
