Anyone that has Hashimoto's or anti thyroid antibodies have luck getting pregnant?

Any of you with Hashimoto's and/or anti thyroid antibodies have luck getting pregnant? I am struggling with infertility and my antibodies are in in the 100's (normal is below 35). The dr's keep telling me this shouldn't be stopping me from getting pregnant. If it was an issue, I would be getting pregnant and miscarrying (that is not the case with me), however, i keep reading differently on the internet. Anti thyroid antibodies in fact do cause infertility. Any one know any thing else on this?  i've had every other fertility test done and all is normal.

I have Hashimoto's which was undiagnosed for over 15 years. I had 3 children. I did have bleeding at around each period for the first 3 months of my last pregnancy and nearly lsot the baby on the third month bleed, but  he is here and well 16 years later!
I think the risks are just as bad as anyone else getting pregnant. There are women who never carry to term and they have no thyroid disease. I think it is just luck of the draw really.
Cheers!

everyone is my family has thyroid disorder.
Here is the list of the family memeber and the number of kids they have ...My aunt 3 kids, my counsin -3 kids, my other cousin -2 kids....they did not even treat the thyroid. They have big thyroid gland...goiter. It neve stopped them. I am planning on having a baby myself. I am 36! If i have an issue, it is because of my age and has nothing to do with this thyroid. So, don't worry too much....try to see if you have other issues...Good luck.
