How Common Is It To Have A Baby With Health Issues With High Tsh Level?

I am 9.5 weeks pregnant and my TSH level is 5.5. I am taking 50mcg of synthroid and my doctor just bumped it up to 75mcg. My major concern is obviously the 5.5 TSH level causing harm to the fetus. Feeling helpless knowing that my baby could be born w health issues. How common is it to have a baby w health issues with these types of levels?
