Consult an endocrinologist regarding the raised tsh. Breastfeeding doesn't cause this raised tsh.Get your urine tested regarding the pain abdomen.

Please get your urine pregnancy test done and consult a Gynaecologist. You should use some effective contraceptives. You will have irregular periods for many months after delivery and you may conceive without knowing that you have become pregnant. Please get your complete Thyroid profile and consult a Gynaecologist or a General Physician. It should be T3 T4 and TSH and not only TSH.
