I did speak with my endo and she's going to keep a very close eye on me and she's doing blood draws again in 3 weeks and have frequent blood draws. she also has switched my meds to ptu for now. I have and ob  appointment on Oct 3. just not sure what to expect with the in. luckily the ob is in the same network as my endo

Answer

I had gestational Graves' disease with my first. It went undetected meanwhile I was passing thyroid antibodies to my baby through the placenta. She was born with congenital hypothyroidism. Never knew this could happen. Talk to your doctor  It's manageable in pregnancy with medication. Good luck. 
They keep checking my thyroid levels each trimester just in case the same thing happens with my current pregnancy. Told me they could treat me with meds and the baby would be fine. Hope this helps.
