Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Yes it is safe to have a baby.
She can try for pregnancy but she might need some dose adjustment of her medicines so you will have to keep a close watch over her thyroid profile.
Do not worry much, her obstetrician will take care of everything.
But just be careful and go for timely check-ups and get tests done regularly. Other than that, everything will be just fine.
Best regards.
