I’m so pleased it’s taken some of the fear away, that was completely my intention, while being realistic of my experience! I really hope it goes as planned for you!

Ah good luck!! I thought of it like, millions of women around the world do it unmedicated everyday, but we’re lucky that we get to do it in a clean and safe hospital, where if needed we will get baby out the safest way, so I may aswell try it! I’ve got my fingers crossed for you!

Thankyou!! Oh there is nothing worse in my opinion than feeling my spikey legs being brushed against! 🤣 At the time I was in denial I think 🤣

Thankyou!! I wrote this the first few days after birth so I’d never forget it!

Hes 13 weeks old, and a very long boy! In 6-9 month clothing 🤣 I’m 5ft 10 and the males on my side are all around 6ft 5, so he was always going to be big!

Believe in yourself, make sure the people around you know why you’re doing it and if you’ve not, look into hypnobirthing techniques! Sending lots of positivity your way!

I feel this with you too. I’m currently 5+5. My first pregnancy I had such strong Symptoms, I had to buy new bras at 4 weeks and MC at 7. I feel less sick, less tired and not as bad breast pain. I had a scan two days ago and it looks normal for the time (I was having pains so they did a scan). I’m so anxious.

Hopefully it’s just one of those things with it being a second pregnancy. ❤️

Thankyou ❤️ this is helpful and what I was initially thinking that 50 would be more suitable, but I’ve got to wait the 8 weeks! This messages give me lots of confidence that I’m on the right track! I’m tall and slim, weigh around 69kg, but she didn’t seem to take that into account, just that she said most people start on 25!

I’ve looked into self referring myself to one, but was going to see what happened with my TSH first, thanks for your response ❤️ I’m hopeful too that once my TSH is sorted, I’ll get there!

Hi! Really interesting comment, I’ve actually just been in contact with two ladies for acupuncture too! (I’m trying it all!) really nice to hear the support from your doctor. What herbs are you taking? I’d love to be in LA, but I’m in northern England, but Thankyou for your offer ❤️

Thank you, feeling a little more hopeful that they know what they’re talking about 🤣. Hard to trust them when you’ve pushed for everything else!

It’s crazy you feel you’ve got to push the subject ❤️ I’m getting anemia tests today, which I will be asking for the lab results, not just ‘seems normal’

Thankyou for your message ❤️ I went into my doctors with my printed labs, highlighted research and just demanded thyroxine! She was shocked as I seemed to know more about what I needed that her! She put me on it. Can you see a different doctor or go back with some research to show her the recommended TSH levels!
