I dealt with this problem in each of my pregnancies. Back then No one seemed to even think that something like this could happen, or cared. It took me the best part of about 20 years to figure out why my thyroid is so large. It is still considered to be in the range of normal, but I still don't think that my thyroid is functioning correctly.
