Underactive thyroid problems
I'm 15 weeks pregnant and I have had a phonecall from the doctor at the hospital and been told that I've got an underactive thyroid so need to start some tablets as it can affect me and the baby if I don't get it treated in my pregnancy. I've had thyroid issues in the past but i hadn't had them checked in awhile so I'm glad the hospital got them checked on Tuesday this week. I just hope everything will be okay. Xx

@Leanne Thanks for reassuring me 😊. Does it make you really exhausted? I've been so tired with this pregnancy. Though I do have vitamin b12 defiency too so not sure if it's that and being pregnant or if it's something else. Xx
@Naomi it doesn't make me exhausted because fortunately it's managed. As soon as your medication level is correct you will fell like normal. You should only feel tired if the levels are too low. Ah if you have other deficiencies it might be that too but if you are being monitored that a good thing x
@Naomi of course, pregnancy itself it just exhausting! Lol so I mean as "normal" as a mum to be can be! Lol

I've had an underactive thyroid most of my life. My doctors have been great at monitoring it every 4-6 weeks and so far all good 👍🏾 everything will be OK 💜
