Hi everyone! Is anyone here of Levothyroxine? In December the doctor advised me to take 50mcg but I had a blood test last week and now they are saying it is too high and should be down of 25mcg.

This isn’t the first time I’m having a GTT, but I’m dreading mine next week 😳 In comparison to going through labour, it should be a walk in the park. But, I absolutely hate staying hungry for longer than an episode of Friends 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 Who’s had theirs? How was it?

I don't think it's clear enough to tell however, a little bit of fun as we are not finding out. Boy or girl?

Any guesses on gender 12+2 days
