I’m a community based therapist who works with middle/high school students. I’m currently pregnant and feel like a potato, so of course this happened…I was playing a game with a pre-teen boy and I see him averting his gaze. I look down and my blouse came unbuttoned. I said “oops” and buttoned it back up. We continued to play the game, but I just want to crawl in a hole forever now.

Embarrassing things happen to us all, so tell me your stories so I’m not alone.

Hi all, I found out I have Hypothyroid (Hashimoto’s) in January after struggling to conceive. My TSH was at 11 and after getting put on Levothyroxine went down to .3 after 2 months, so my levo dose was decreased. I managed to conceive in May and I’m now just over 5 weeks pregnant. My OB wanted me to come in and retest my TSH right when I found out at 4 weeks but I wasn’t able to because I was out of the state. When I got my test back today, my TSH was at 20.91. I feel guilty and sad that I wasn’t able to come in right away for the lab.

Of course they immediately upped my dosage and I got referred to endocrinology but I’m terrified this pregnancy will end in a loss. Has anyone been able to successfully maintain a pregnancy with this much of a thyroid fluctuation?
