Do give her regular thyroid medicines & regular follow up with Dr. Thyroid is necessary for brain growth so never stop thyroid without Dr. advice. For hole in heart asd or vsd you need to echo as suggested by cardiologist, many time hole closes on its own but depends on many factors. Baby may need to continue medicines till then both the disease are manageable so don't worry just do regular follow up.
