Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

You have pregnancy and your TSH level is 8.27. It suggest hypothyroidism. You need thyroxine supplements. Hypothyroidism can leads to developmental defects in child. But if you take proper supplements then its ok. Keep your TSH level in normal range.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
