For those of you who are hypo and have given birth --how often did you have your thyroid checked during the pregnancy? I am about 6 weeks pregnant (and have Hashimotos) and my last TSH, about 10 days ago was 1.0. How often should I have labs done?

During my first pregnancy (hypo diagnosed at 7weeks) I was checked every 4 weeks. When DS#1 was 6 months I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's and thyroid cancer. When I was pregnant with DS#2 I was checked every 2-4 weeks.
