Thyroid issues!

Hi everyone! Looking to hear your experience with pregnancy alongside thyroid problems, I had my thyroid removed about 20 years ago and take thyroxine, they took my bloods at my booking appointment and she called the other day to say my consultant appointment has been brought forward 4 weeks due to thyroid concerns! Im a wee bit anxious about it if im honest 😅 my levels have never really been managed correctly

Second pregnancy

I’ve just found out that I’m pregnant with my second baby. My little one has just turned two and I’m slightly dreading toddlerhood and pregnancy at the same time. This baby was planned and very wanted, but now I’m actually pregnant I don’t know how to feel about it. Please tell me this is normal 🫣.

This pregnancy is kicking my ass

Prenatal depression to everything in the house stinks and my face breaking out and can’t even clean the house without my back breaking as I already have a bump I’m so done already and not even in my second trimester yet

Zoloft during pregnancy? Good, bad an the ugly plz

I have high anxiety but im not on any medications, I am diagnosed with Bipolar and anxiety, and im 12 weeks pregnant- my dr asked why I was shaking, I told her it was anxiety and she said shes starting me on Zoloft, i havnt started it yet. Im scared to start an SSRI while pregnant, Im mentally healthy now but and scared bc of my past of harmful thoughts. Anyone else have to start Zoloft while pregnant? What was your experience?
*I know every body is different*

Baby #2

Okay mamas, please only positive thoughts and energy here…. I just found out I am pregnant with baby number two! I am over the moon excited, hubby and I agreed that to start trying in March when baby was 9 months old. I wanted to start trying so early because I know that it can take awhile sometimes. Of course as excited as I am, I still didn’t expect it to be so soon. I haven’t had my first appointment yet so things are still very early, but I wanted to share the news with immediate family. I can’t keep a secret to save my life lol. Most were very happy but still got some generic responses such as “ your first isn’t a year yet” “you could have waited a little longer” and so on. I am having anxiety over my first appointment as it is not with my regular doctor so I’m worried about being shamed :/ I am having some feelings of guilt after getting negative feedback from family. I guess I’m just looking for some positive thoughts and wishes from yall. I believe everything happens for a reason and I am on the right path here but can’t help but be emotional

Is anyone else irritable?

Hi I’m 35 weeks today and I’ve noticed the past few days I’ve been so irritable with my husband and within the things I’ve been doing.

This pregnancy we’ve dealt with HG, severe anemia, low weight gain, and now preeclampsia risk so we’re looking at a medical induction at 37 weeks. This has all been hard but usually I have a positive outlook and things don’t get to me as much. But goodness something about the past few days has just flipped a switch and no matter how rested or taken care of I am; I feel so snappy and I find myself glaring at the most random things.

Any other mommas in the same boat?
