Hello ma'am and welcome.
There should be absolutely no abnormalities in the child whether or not your thyroid levels are well controlled, but in order to support pregnancy and avoid any complications that can result in a miscarriage, you shpuld discuss with your doctor the best methods to reach a euthyroid state.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
