I have had hypothyroidism since birth. I also take my tablet everyday but my office wanted to check the growth. I have another one on April 26th.

    are they concerned that the baby might have issues because of it?

    My doc knows I'm hypo and doesn't seem too concerned... as long as my levels are close to a one.

    They arent *concerned* just keeping an eye on it since i have had it since birth. Being pregnant makes your levels waky anyway...you could ask your OB at your next appt about scans.i know that (especially in the beginning) your levels need to be perfect so that your baby's brain develops properly. Sometimes there can be problems later on in childhood with learning, reading and such....

    right-I have my levels checked every four weeks because of that....  By now that baby is producing her/his own thyroid hormones, but I still get my levels checked often.  Nothing has been mentioned about a scan just because I have hypo.

    I have an appointment tomorrow, so I'll ask.  This is good to know.

    So far, baby has been perfect.

    Thanks for the info!
