It may take a bit to be noticeable for you since your numbers quite low, give it some time. Get yourself a light therapy lamp also, the lack of light in the winter doesn't help the situation.

Yes I was recalling last night that it actually did take me a couple of days before I was really sure that it was working.
Keep us posted on the ultrasound. Sometimes I feel like it's almost worse when they don't see anything because they just shrug and act like you're crazy and send you on your way. Wishing you the best!

I am feeling better on the iron. 100% for sure that it is doing something. I do see more of a difference the first few hours right after i take it..like an energy boost..it doesnt last super long though so i can only hope it isnt leaving me as fast as im absorbing it. I failed my glucose test...fasting sugar + glucose drink = sugars at 170..now i am going to be told to eat low carb etc and for someone who was already having issues with weight loss and gain this pregnancy its going to kill me. also ive been craving stuffed shells so bad. Oh my god. the next 10 weeks are going to be so brutal.

If you're losing weight are they still going to make you eat low carb?

You can keep weight on with low carb, trust me...I would know u_u
Also, you can do low carb without going keto. Aim to stay at around 100g of carbs if you are not very active and make those carbs complex, not refined. So non sugar, non processed, no grains and nothing white basically. A very good guide can be found here:
The Primal Blueprint Carbohydrate Curve | Mark's Daily Apple
Lots of protein, healthy animal fats, veg and some fruit, there's tons of options. HTH!
Although this isn't speaking of prenatal nutrition, his eating guidelines are very good.

Well my worst fear came to fruition..my thyroid was normal on ultrasound. However more bloodwork showed TSH still dropping. Doctor is perplexed but not done.. he says I do need a scan to look at my pituitary gland but it will have to wait until baby is born. 9 weeks or less..
There was also talk of metaformin for my high sugars.. (200+) is metaformin safe in pregnancy? He says he thiughtbso but I thought it wasn't for some reason...
