Hypothyroidism & Pregnancy, Fertility, Conceiving & Postpartum- MUM CHAT #1

[@FreedomIsMyChoice]

After 8 miscarriages and 2 failed IVF treatments is when they caught my hypothyroidism. So many doctors just thought i was fat, joint pain and tired. Telling me that I needed just to lose weight and eat less when i was already only eating 1 meal a day for years. To finally find a doctor that knew what to look for and treat me was phenomenal! Started losing weight and 4 months later we became pregnant through IVF. 8 months pregnant now and so excited to start this new journey in our lives.❤

[@danielleconstantine3210]

I just got diagnosed tonight after 5 years of infertility. Starting medication tomorrow. Hoping that once my levels are corrected, we can have a healthy pregnancy.

[@genesisjosiahethan24]

I just got diagnosed with Hashimotos but was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 5 years ago. PCOS is also here… I want to have a baby 😢😢😢😢 how’s it going for you?

[@slobo5568]

Any luck?

[@emmaheffernan7022]

I lost my first pregnancy due to this and I’m so glad I found this video because it’s giving me a lot of information I didn’t even know before ,, thank you for making this video ❤️

[@beckyocole]

I'm so sorry to hear about your 1st pregnancy! Im glad the video has helped you a bit :) x

[@laleacevedo9120]

See that's what I'm scared of sorry for your lost 😔

[@kdzelaya8373]

This is not meant to disrespect your life and video. I apologize in advance if it makes you uncomfortable... I have Hashimoto's disease and I haven't had ANY of the symptoms that you have. Nor was I checked every month to make sure everything was ok. I just called the doctor when I felt that my Thyroid was starting to swell, and they would get me in for an appointment as soon as possible. That only happened once out of my pregnancy so far. I am 25 weeks currently. Nor did I see a doctor before I got pregnant. Mainly because I wasn't planning on having a baby, but life happens. I also didn't get the medication I needed until I was 3.5 months pregnant, And everything is fine with baby. I wanted to emphasize that every woman, pregnancy, baby, illness/disease is different. Yesssss what your saying is helpful. But also scary. I didn't bleed one time. I just don't want other woman to watch this and think DISASTER is going to strike them because of Hashimoto's disease. But Someone will benefit from your story, and for that thank you for sharing.

[@beckyocole]

Oh gosh that is not my intention at all! Oh the NHS it's recommended that you get your TSH levels at a certain level before conceiving and you have to get bloods done for your consultant every 4-6 weeks so that what I did. I didn't bleed in my second pregnancy apart from spotting in 1st trimester. Everyone is so different and thanks for sharing your story too.

[@aimeemozley7768]

You’re blessed. Hashimotos is linked to infertility and miscarriage. I’m a registered nurse, and your doctor was incredibly irresponsible for not checking your levels. I’m so glad you’re ok! ❤️

[@Sarah-hf1gh]

Thank you for your story

[@busisiwesogwagwa4018]

I wish women like you could also share their experiences on KZbin because I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and I didn't plan to get pregnant but I am. I would like to hear experiences of people who went through a full term pregnancies who have hypothyroidism without planning. I searched and searched and searched but no one has posted anything.

[@saparyasudhakaran1349]

​@@busisiwesogwagwa4018hey how is your pregnancy? Can you pls update...

[@ginveros]

I just found your video. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism around the same time I found out I was pregnant for the first time. No one really told me the extreme importance of lowering my TSH levels before getting pregnant or checking my levels through pregnancy, so I ended up having a miscarriage. Now I have more information but was actually pretty scared about my chances of getting my next pregnancy full term. This really showed me a light. Thank you so much.

[@mirarashed6015]

Glad i found this video really positive and gave me so much hope! I had 5 miscarriages in a row my obgyn checked my TSH and it always turn out normal, after i read Rebbeca fett book “it starts with the egg”, she mentioned checking for the complete thyroid panel and i did. thats how i found out i got hashimotos early this year, praying for a healthy pregnancy 🤞💕 Thank you!

[@dahiry]

Thank you! In my case I was not planning on getting pregnant, but I am, but knowing that you had a healthy baby is a breath of fresh air....google keeps putting articles of deformities and autism due to hypothyroidism and drinking thyroid pills, uhh it just breaks you down and makes you feel awful...but thank you for your positiveness

[@sunshinedust221]

Thankyou for this video

[@beckyocole]

Good luck, now you know you have hashimotos you can get your health back on track! Im pregnant with no.2 it can be done!! Also look up Sweet Laurel Bakery-she is SUCH an inspiration and had a brilliant pregnancy despite having hashimotos x

[@ashleyscott8845]

This was such a great video! I have had hypothyroidism since I was 18 and I’m now 23. When I first went to my endocrinologist my levels were in the 400s!! I don’t have family or friends with this same issue and it was so helpful to hear your story. I never hear about anyone’s experiences with this!

[@erinwallace7952]

Thanks for this video, although I did have to do some googling to find it ha! I just got diagnosed with hypothyroidism and we are TTC. Fingers crossed that my levels can find a balance to make a baby!

[@beckyocole]

You totally can!! My midwife knows plenty of women who have gone on to have 4 babies! xx

[@Behen786]

Erin Wallace good luck. I just found out too and ttc 5 years!! Baby dust!!!✨✨💫

[@yulylopez5504]

I know this is an old video but I cannot thank you enough for your words I am sooo scared because everything about hashimoto is miscarriage and cannot have kids I’m 42 and trying IVF to have my baby and it’s terrifying what you hear out there!! I’m staying positive and rewatching your videos to stay positive ❤

[@beckyocole]

Good Luck!!! My thyroid specialist has loads of positive fertility stories :) xx

[@Emilyshouse95]

I have hypothyroidism and I have lost two babies. :( This video has helped. I need to get it sorted at the doctor's!! Thank you. I take 50mg levothyroxine. Perhaps it's not enough.

[@beckyocole]

I so glad this has helped and I am so so sorry to hear of your loses. Some good resources are Dr Jolene Brighten and Aviva Room-it may give you a better idea of other bloods to get done x

[@keniarios8335]

That’s how much I’m taking and it’s been so hard for me to get pregnant :( I feel you

[@emmaheffernan7022]

Emylynn XO I have also lost a pregnancy due to this, sending you my love ❤️

[@loree3396]

I take 100mg

[@vinu1505]

It happened with my wife too, she lost and we are devastated. Can you help me, if you are given with any Steroids or minerals like Selenium or something? She started taking Levythorixine after we lost first and it happened for second too.

[@ashleym7069]

Have been super anxious with thinking of becoming pregnant with my newly diagnosis of unspecified hypothyroidism of only 2 years. I also have on my fathers side women who haven’t been able to conceive and on my mother’s side women who have been super fertile. This video has really helped me so much to feel less anxious about becoming pregnant. Gut issues, fatigue and just overall imbalance of weight gain/loss has been the hardest part of this thyroid complication. Thank you for making this video really was very information and encouraging. ❤️

[@digiartly]

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at the age of 29. Before that it was high but still within the range. No wonder I gained weight a lot during that year.

[@lexusstokes1005]

Thank you so much for this. 6 years TTC and finally confirmed I had hypothyroidism. I still feel nervous but these videos help me brace myself. I can't wait to see my specialist about actually getting pregnant. I didn't think it was possible.

[@mariekhryssvlogs4633]

We are planning for a baby just recently but my doctor diagnosed me with hypothyroidism. I feel sad but after watching your video it gave me hope. Thank you! 😘

[@beckyocole]

Get a great health team behind you, but remember so many women have thyroid issues and go on to have a family xx

[@livingoutloudproject338]

We just stumbled across this video and want to say a huge thank you! There is such little good quality information out there about Hashimotos and pregnancy, so much so that we decided to set up our own channel to chart our journey too. Thank you for leading the way!

[@amberwade1809]

Thank you so much! I have Hashimoto's hypothyroidism as well and can relate to everything you mentioned. So helpful and reassuring since I am preparing for conception this coming fall. I am already practicing self care by consuming whole foods, exercise, and improved sleep and stress levels. Having Hashimoto's is a challenge, but can be done with pregnancy.

[@rlk7861]

Hi just want to say thank you so much for giving me hope. I was terrifid after reading online about how thyroid can affect pregnancy. I have been getting myself so depressed and down. Buy this video has reassured me massively. 🙏 you have no idea how this video has helped me. Xxx

[@nicolehottendorf4542]

Thank you for this. I was just diagnosed with Hypothyroidism and I am trying to get pregnant. Google does make my anxiety high. This gives me hope!

Yes google is the worst! It creates so much doubt and stress! I have a resources page on my blog that has some nice books and products which have really helped me - www.beckyocole.com/best-diet-books-products-hashimotos-hypothyroidism/

[@belzeebubbubbachunks]

I got pregnant on an IUD. Roughly 12 weeks along. I found out yesterday I have subclinical hypothyroidism. TSH doesn't seem to be evaluated during pregnancy, but I happened to have the test ordered prior, but forgot about it until I had my blood tests for other diseases. Fingers crossed it's a temporary problem. Went on the medication today

[@KMH9459]

How’s it going? ❤

[@EdotS84]

This gives me so much joy. I was worried but I now have see proof from someone who is British. Did you experience candida of any type?

I used to but reducing sugar really helps as does fermented food! So happy this video helped! x

[@louannv8608]

We need more of this info out there in my country they rarely check for hypothyroidism when pregnant or even if you have a miscarriage and have all the symptoms thanks for sharing it made me wiser

[@jannelletrujillo4073]

Thank you for your story! I have hoshimotos and I am going to be trying to get pregnant. I’ve been so nervous and hoping it’s even a possibility.

[@Marty_eli]

Wow I’m going through it all right now! Currently bleeding too, tsh isn’t down though so I think I’m miss carrying. Super happy to hear of your successful pregnancy. Gives me hope!

[@beckyocole]

[@DarkWitch_91]

I have same problem as you have. I just feels so scared because I don’t really think I can get pregnant bcx of hypo. It’s changed my life forever and made me highly doubts but since you made that videos. It’s kinda give me more hope and faith also can be pregnant. So I really can be pregnant? I just still in shock.

After our 1st baby I never managed to loose that last 10kgs and 4 years later (!!!), after trying for baby#2 for 1.5years..I've got a 1160 AntiTPO level and 6.66 TSH private lab back... got 2 6weeks old miscarriages and just don't see any hope at the moment to have quick action on NHS' side. :(

[@Lovevaiyah18dj]

what about women with hyperthyroid? I'm worried I got hyperthyroid after first pregnancy and I am hoping and praying I won't have any fertility issues for next pregnancy as i'm still having menstrual cycles and I believe I am still olvalating. I find this great information still. I'm praying to God I will be able to have my next baby with no issues with my true love once we finally meet.

[@Zo-Zo-125]

Thank you so much for this video, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism at 2weeks old and when I told my doctor I was trying to get pregnant earlier this year I got told that i would struggle but they offered no other help or advice, I always ask for my level after my blood test every 6 week and it ranges 3-6, I’m going to try and get it below 3 now and see if that helps sand also go speak to my gp again.

[@neibahuitron6352]

Thank you for sharing your story with us, I found out 2 yrs ago I had hypothyroidism and we have been ttc for 10 yrs. finally having my appointment with the reproductive endocrinologist in a few weeks! I’m anxious to know how long it will take us after getting my thyroid levels on point.

[@mikalathomas9278]

What was your TSH level when you were first diagnosed at 19?

[@natalial27]

I was recently diagnosed with Hashimoto and my TSH was at the time 2.3. Antibodies are important to check too.

[@hannahagee9819]

I've had 6 losses 19-20 years old, my last loss was in April. I've known i had a thyroid problem since I was 14. I did research day and night and talking to my aunts and cousins who have a thyroid problem as well. But my drs felt my neck for many years and said I was fine. Then at 20 years old I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism by my husband Dr, she did blood work. I told her my obgyn just felt my neck and she's like no were doing blood work. And boom i was right all along..

[@lkathleenc]

Thank you so very much for sharing your story. You gave my family and I hope to look forward to :)

[@Candy_Sage]

I lost 2 baby’s over my thyroid.. one at 7weeks and the other at 9weeks1day .. that last pregnancy was a year ago but since then they haven’t been able to level out my thyroid 😫

[@beckyocole]

You could try a naturopath or functional doctor. They can be a game changer!

[@Candy_Sage]

@@beckyocole over here in Ireland they might have a different name for them but I’ll have to try something .. unless it’s my contraception pill that’s causing my thyroid to not function properly

[@beckyocole]

Yes I went off the pill when I found out I had hashimotos. Not sure if it helped but I did do that. My private dr is in Ireland! Dm me privately and I can send details if you want

[@nkk1729]

[@brittanymorgan689]

How do you know when to start going to the doctor once a month to keep track of thyroid levels... even though already being treated

[@beckyocole]

Hi Brittany, here in the UK you have to check in with blood work every 4 weeks until about 20 weeks pregnant.

[@jollie9305]

Thank you for this video. I was really afraid not to get pregnant after diagnosed with hypothirodism 3 days ago.

[@chloegreenfield9866]

Can I ask, did you do this on the NHS? Struggling with Hashimoto's and keeping a pregnancy, I'm based in the UK

[@beckyocole]

Yes I had both of my pregnancies monitored through the NHS-I think it was bloods and a consultant before conception and then 4 week bloods and meds adjustments during and then one appointment after to readjust meds. I have a private consultant now and Im in remission.

[@desistoikova5396]

How long does it take to lower TSh and how long it took you to get pregnant? I just found out mine is at 11 and I’m struggling to get pregnant. Thanks ❤

No during pregnancies I've only been on T4. Now postpartum Im on t3, LDN and t4 :)

Hey Becky. Thank you for sharing your story. Did you have high anti-TPO (or Tg) antibodies? Did your endocrinologist monitor them or talk about them at all being a cause for concern?

[@beckyocole]

You can always get genetic screening if you're really worried on that front. Or both of you could talk to a thyroid specialist and they will put your mind at rest with stats and what not! Best thing you can do is to get a really great health team around you, that's what I did and it's the best thing I did. They will make sure you're strong before you attempt conceiving and thats the most important thing. Lots of women have thyroid issues and go onto having healthy multiple births x

[@XdPickles]

How can you get pregnant with hypothyroidism? I was diagnosed after having my son.... he’s now 8 months and I really want another baby.

[@beckyocole]

You would need to go to your GP and get a consultant to work with you to make sure your levels are ok for pregnancy and then during pregnancy they check you very regularly and adjust the medication so that stay within range. You can also support your thyroid in a natural way at the same time too, which I recommend. I have a list of resources linked in this post :)

[@XdPickles]

Becky O Cole I actually went to an obgyn the one who was supposed to deliver my son , he came later so he wasn’t able but he kept telling me that it was possible to still get pregnant to keep trying every day 3 times a day I’m trying to go to another one because I don’t like his comments lol and thank you I’ll have to read up on it

[@XdPickles]

Becky O Cole I also forgot to mention that I am on medication. My doctor had me off of it for 6 weeks to get my levels re checked and when I got re checked they still weren’t good so she’s having me on a lower dosage and wants me to retest with my new doctor

[@beckyocole]

It's definitely really common to get hypothyroidism after a pregnancy-there's a book by Jolene Brighten all about the thyroid for women postpartum, you should read it, I think you'd like it!
