Mom with hyperthyroid and healthy baby

Question

First time mom here. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroid and subsequently became pregnant while still under medication. Im fearful that my medication will cause negative impact on my babys growth, like slow to learn etc. Any thyroid mothers out there and is baby doing fine? #advicepls

My mum has hypothyroid, all of us (4) all came out healthy, none of us were preterm or anything. My mil has hyperthyroid, her kids (3 including my hub) are all full term and healthy too. They are both also on medications throughout pregnancy, your gynae should be able to prescribe you pregnancy safe medicines for thyroid during pregnancy.
