You are having something called as subclinical hypothyroidism the cutoff for a pregnant women is 2.5 in first trimester and 3 in second and third trimester so according to this wife has to take thyroxine tablets it is highly essential for the baby to develop normally. It's important to take the tablets and it is absolutely safe don't worry
