I have graves disease and hyperthyroidosm. i'm 9 weeks pregnant. it's still untreated and has been over a year. is my baby gonna have brain problems?

Possibly...: According to the Mayo Clinic, "Possible complications of Graves' disease during pregnancy include miscarriage, preterm birth, fetal thyroid dysfunction, poor fetal growth, maternal heart failure and preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is a maternal condition that results in high blood pressure and other serious signs and symptoms." There are safe ways to manage during pregnancy. See your doctor to discuss.

Why untreated?: Do you not have a physician looking after you for your pregnancy? Why is your condition not treated at this time? Untreated Graves disease can affect the pregnancy but it really depends on a lot of factors and the severity of the problem. It is also as possible that your baby will be fine. However, the bottom line is you should get on to proper treatment.
