Advice?

Hi everyone! Ive recently been told I have an underactive thyroid. I'm currently 30+ weeks pregnant and I'm worried about the effects it may have on my baby? Is there anyone else who was diagnosed with this durning pregnancy? If so please comment with any advice or information!

It will be very helpful for members if you will call and get the thyroid test results and reference range information and then post here.  Also, whap was prescribed for you and what daily dosage?

Thank you for your comment! Don't have numbers because I received a phone call and got the perscription from the doctors office!! My iron count is also low so I am currently on iron now too. Symptoms are extreamly tired and weight gain(even though I'm expecting I've been trying too control weight gain best I could by excercise and healthy diet) . Luckily that is all I'msuffering from so far!

Being a man, I better stay out of any discussion of pregnancy issues.  LOL  However, whoever does answer will want to know first thing what symptoms you are having?   And also please post your thyroid related test results and their reference ranges, as shown on the lab report.  Also if tested for Vitamin D, B12 and ferritin, or other iron related tests, please post those results, along with reference ranges.
