Hi,
I read that one of you was also diagnosed as anaemic? (I posted back in the very early days of the thread)....I take my thyroid medication in the am and my iron medication after dinner as was told that if you take both at the same time, it can counter the thyroid meds....
I did get terrible headaches during pregnancy (not the ones the last few days due to high BP) and my ob/gyn said I could take Solpadeine (tylenol/paracetamol with codeine) which helped, e.g. once or twice during one week (not the usual dose, everyday) -- these headaches were around wks12-16 and were quite bad (stiff neck, etc., but not related to my later PE), so perhaps you could ask you GP for a once-off?
oh, in Ireland, they check the baby when born regarding thyroid, but they also ran a few more tests when Finn was born to confirm that his thyroid function was fine -- just in case -- but he is fine, so it's something to remember (not worry about!) when your LOs arrive!
best wishes
