Hi all, just wondering if anyone's had thyroid issues since having their baby? how did you realise there was a problem, what did the dr do about it, and what happened since?

They asked me about thyroid function when I joined the gym the other day and it got me thinking. I've recently had a huge weight gain, feeling the cold this year a lot more than usual (usually I'm a hot bod) and I also had a recent bout of depression that was a lot deeper and seemed to come out of nowhere (to the point where I was on the verge of asking for ADs at the drs). When I googled, I found some references to postpartum thyroiditis, which is usually a period of hyperthyroid function followed by a hypothyroid period. This also fits since there were a few months there where i was unusually irrationally anxious and jittery.
