Ayesha Curry is recovering from thyroid surgery at three months postpartum
Her tough pregnancy and thyroid issues are likely linked.
“This is my third pregnancy and I’ve gotta tell ya, this one has topped the cake when it comes to being tough and exhausting. I️ simply cannot wait to have this baby and feel like ‘myself again’,” Curry wrote on her blog back in February.
“The nausea, incessant sickness and exhaustion probably won’t go away. The only silver linings here are that my itty bitty baby is healthy and Princess Kate has suffered from the same condition during her pregnancies. Not feeling super royal though.”
Research indicates hyperemesis gravidarum and thyroid abnormalities are linked and hyperemesis gravidarum can lead to hyperthyroidism. That’s why some women who’ve had HG during pregnancy need close monitoring of their thyroid function in the postpartum period.
Curry was likely monitored closely after welcoming Canon in July, and is obviously taking care of her health, something too many mamas but to the back burner.
We’re glad to hear that Curry is doing well after her surgery and hope that her honesty about her health helps other mothers remember to care for their own.
