Pregnant with Hashimoto's?

[annabelle118]

Hi BnBers out there,

I'm a new user to this site but I've definitely done a bit of sneaking around during my TWW's. I jsut posted to "pregnancy club", but since I'm in my 1T (just barely preg!), I thought I'd post here, too.

I am hoping to start a group of ladies pregnant with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (autoimmune thyroiditis). I'm only 4w5d pregnant, but already I am having some concerns about medication increase, miscarriage, etc. If this isn't a good place to post this solicitation, let me know where I should post. So...anyone else out there PG with Hashi's?

Yes, I am, I had a baseline of TSH of 0.6 before pregnancy and at 4w2d it had already upped to 3.99 which is above recommended 2.5 for pregnancy, I had a 30% increase in meds and now levels look good, phew! So, can be a bit scary but I have a good endo who will check my levels regularly throughout my pregnancy so happy with that!

How are you managing your hypo through your pregnancy?
