For you ladies with hypo and pregnant or been pregnant, how many times did you increase your dose ? Just interested to know as I have had to do mine twice already.

Some will not need to raise, most will need to raise a few times especially in the 1st trimester before the baby produces its own thyroid, & some will need to raise many times. Everyone is different.
Are you under GP care? How often are they checking your levels to make sure you are on the right dose?
Read hypothyroidmom.com & buy the book she wrote with Mary Shoman (it will be advertised on her website) specifically about pregnancy.
Please insist they test antibodies, FT3/4 and not just the bog standard TSH level, I ended up an awful mess after my 2 year old.
Good luck and congrats
