This looks like a low  risk situation --- Tg < 1 with TSH stimulation.
There is not likely any need for I-131 scanning or treatment.
So would keep TSH in the low normal range (0.2-0.8) with this history and once this is achieved, procede with pregnancy plans.  Keep your endo up to date regarding your plans and time of conception as the dose of levothyroxine will need to be increased most likely during pregnancy.
