I'm 12 weeks pg (first scan tomorrow) with my second DC and taking 100ug levothyroxine/day as I have been for the last couple of years (figures were way off the scale). I was diagnosed 8 months after DC1's birth.
Thing is, before I fell pg this time the endocrine consultant told me monitoring would be essential if I was to fall pg again, I'd have to be referred and seen ASAP. I've begged my gp, made phone calls to the endocrine unit, to no avail, they are seeing me for the first time next week (had blood taken yesterday for this purpose). Mw has referred me to an obstetrician for this, who I will see when I'm 16 weeks.
Could someone who's been in the same boat reassure me this is normal procedure and my pregnancy won't be affected by lack of early monitoring?
Thank you
