Ok - don't know if I am being overly anxious here but would be grateful to hear from anyone who has experience of this.
I have a 6month old DS (who is very gorgeous ) and for some mad mad reason am feeling clucky again. Could be due to the fact that he has recently started to sleep a lot lot better and so feeling much more 'with it' the past few days.
Anyway to get to the point of this post.....I have had a thyroid goitre for many years now and my thyroid levels have always been in the normal range, even during my pregnancy. I have also never shown any signs of thyroid disease to date.
At my 6 week post partum check up my GP recommended that I get tested for thyroid antibodies (never heard of the test before), which I did recently and the test came back as showing positive for thyroid antibodies. Being positive means that my thyroid now has the very real potential to fail and now I have scared myself shiteless by reading websites that also tell it could affect my chances of conceiving much much wanted other DCs. I was thinking of waiting till Dec 09/Jan 10 before starting again but now am thinking maybe I shouldn't hang around that long. What do others think??
