I was diagnosed with hashimoto's
thyroiditis in '98. After years of
constant monitoring, my doctor decided it
was time to put me on synthetic thyroid
hormones (synthroid) this past march.
The symptoms are improving (depression,
always feeling cold, foggy brain, etc.)
but given the hashimoto's and the fact
that i'm 35, my doctor recommended that I
not wait to have a baby. So, my husband
of two months and I are giving it a go
("ttc" as you say on this site!). I'm
freaking out a bit though. Anybody out
there with hashimoto's have a successful
pregnancy??
