Hi
Yes. This value of TSH is normal. You can definitely try conceiving now. There is no risk to the baby with this TSH level. Also start taking one tablet of folic acid daily.
Continue to take thyronorm even after conceiving. This hormone is extremely important for baby's brain growth in the first trimester and also for baby's all round growth through out pregnancy. The baby is completely dependent on mother for thyroid hormone in the first 10-12 weeks. Thyronorm does not harm the baby.

I am writing some more information below as I feel you may find this useful.

Because of the pregnancy hormones the TSH level can fall below the normal range in the first trimester and this is normal. You should not get alarmed about it.
You must repeat thyroid function tests every trimester. The requirement of thyronorm that you are taking can increase by 50% during pregnancy. The aim is to keep TSH level below 2.

I hope I have answered to your satisfaction. If you have any further queries do contact me through healthcare magic. I will be happy to answer
