    dear Megha 77611,

    iI went thru a lot of different things with my thyroid, and the only time i had to remain at least

    10 feet from pets and other people is when my thyroid was nuked. if your husband has done this the time should be at least 7 to 10 days. your baby would not be affected if these rules are followed. But, I believe you should also speak to your physician. I am a retired nurse, but i also think you should be assured by a physician.

    best wishes foryou, your busband and your new little one
