Newborn with low TSH levels (Thyroid function test )

Dear mummies , My newborn blood was tested with low TSH levels less than 0.01, I’m worried it may affect her brain development according to the PD. It is said by the PD that thyroid antibodies are passed through by the mothers during pregnancy . My newborn is scheduled with an appointment with a specialist in KKH this week. Any mummies have similar situation with their newborns with low TSH levels or thyroid issues ? #advice #firsttimemom

Hello dear mummy, I understand your concern about your newborn's low TSH levels. It's great that you have a specialist appointment scheduled at KKH this week; they will be able to provide you with the best advice and guidance for your baby's health. Having low TSH levels in newborns can indeed be concerning, as thyroid function is crucial for brain development. It's good that you are taking proactive steps to address this issue early on. It's not uncommon for thyroid antibodies to pass from mothers to their babies during pregnancy, leading to thyroid issues in newborns. I haven't personally experienced this situation with my children, but I know it can be a worrying time for any parent. Trust in the expertise of the specialist at KKH, and be open to discussing any concerns or questions you may have during the appointment. Remember, you are not alone in this journey, and seeking advice and support from healthcare professionals is the best way to ensure your baby's well-being. Stay strong, mama, and take one step at a time towards addressing your baby's health needs. Sending you positive vibes and wishing for the best possible outcome for your little one.
