Thryoid: I do not know if your husband is taking medication to control thyroid, PTU etc. however, as long as you do not take medication there should be no particular concerns.

No : His condition has nothing to do with your pregnancy . It is obvious that he made healthy sperm that permitted you to get pregnant. Beyond that contribution his condition does not impact the pregnancy in any way. It is also no problem if you remain sexually active with him during the pregnancy.
