General & Family Physician,  's  Response
It will be safer to continue with 50 mcg daily. Actually a new medicine by name thyroweek 75 is also available & needs to be taken once a week. Your TSH 29.8 is very high(N-0.3 -3.0). Have you got baby's TSH done, which is a must. Get your TSH done after 6 months & let me know. you will be fine.
