Nervous

Ashley • Ohio 🤙🏼. 27. Married💍. 👧🏼👧🏼 👶🏼

I have Hypothyroidism. My levels are at a 4. Doctor said they should be at 2.5 during pregnancy (I’m 9 weeks). I’ve been on Levothyroxine 25mcg for a few months before conception. Shortly after I found out I was pregnant (about 4-1/2weeks) my prescription ran out and my doctor wouldn’t refill my pills before my appointment so I was off of the medication for like 2-1/2weeks. Doctor put me back on the pills because she said it can cause “mental retardation” in the fetus. I’m super scared because I was off of it for a couple weeks.

Anyone had a similar experience? How did the baby turn out ?
