Follow your medication. Your thyroid condition does not mean you are unfit and will not effect your child. I am on the same meds as you and have been for two months. Becoming obbessive about your thyroid condition will do you no good at all.

There is no adverse effect on your body and the fact that you are on the proper medication is excellent.
