In my opinion, you have both Graves and Hashimoto's.
It's my understanding that all of the thyroid antibodies can cross the placental wall, but I'm not a doctor and don't work in the medical field; I know only what my research shows. Here's one site that explains it relatively well.

Pregnancy can make your levels bounce around and I notice that your FT3 went down, while your FT4 went up; that makes me wonder if you might not be converting FT4 to FT4, well right now. Studies have shown that selenium helps with the conversion process, so if your doctor approves it, you could try adding a selenium supplement.
TSI tested positive with a result of 2 and anything over 1.3 is considered abnormal. Not nearly as high as the others, but abnormal none the less. So I'm confused. If high antibodies for all 3, then what does this mean? A previous poster mentioned that ONLY TSI antibodies can cross placental wall, is this true? Why wouldn't the others?
Yay -- it worked.........
Yes, this is a large jump, and warrants very close observation.
Per verification via PM, I'm going to try to get your antibody results in here, but can't guarantee they will post any better for me than they did for you.......
2009 TPOab = 120 (range < 61)
TGab = 185 (range < 22)
Current TPOab = 1300 (range < 61)
TGab = 844 (range < 22)
I just sent you a PM, with my interpretation of your results. If I'm right, let me know and I'll try to help get it in here.
Bottom line is: it looks like you've had Hashimoto's for at least a couple of years.
You mentioned that you tested positive for ALL the thyroid antibodies, but I don't see a TSI result - that would be Thyroid Stimulating Immunoglobulin, which is the definitive test for Graves Disease.... please post that, with reference range, if you have it.
nope, not working. TGab range is <22. jumped from 185-844 TPOab range is <61 and jumped from 120 to greater than 1300
