Pebble,
Its really true. Before I got my BFP my TSH was 0.44. I had it checked again at 4 weeks (really being pregnant for only 2 weeks) and it grew to 1.72.
As soon as I got my BFP I called my Endo and she preemptively increased my dosage from 112 to 137 and told me I'd need it checked in a month. My RE is the one who actually checked my TSH and said "your fine" but my Endo was like "you need the higher dosage because your needs are going to increase". I'm six weeks along right now and everything is going fine so far, but it does make me nervous.
My Endo told me that most of the time, these pregancies go fine so I shouldnt' stress about it. I hope she is right! |
