Anyone else pregnant with a heart condition??

Question

I haves rare heart conditions I was born with 3 heart chambers instead of the normal 4. My whole life my family made it seem like I was going to die if I got pregnant. After meeting with MANY doctors I got the all clear! After trying for about 8 months after miscarriage we finally have a sticky bean. My little ❤️ is 15 weeks & we find out if it’s a boy or girl tomorrow!! So if y’all have a heart condition of ANY KIND I want to hear your story!! Please share 😁

Answer

I just had my first Echo cardiogram and I just found out that I have minimal regurgitation in 2 of my heart valves. It's scary to hear I meet with my High Risk OB today so I hope.she tells me that I don't have anything to worry about. I'm also Diabetic so this is really the last thing I wanted to hear.

Answer

I have wolf parkison white syndrome and SVT. My heart has extra wires and sometimes it beats way too fast. My doc said I am all clear to give birth naturally (twins), and that other than extra monitoring, I am doing great. 
Just follow the advice your docs give you. Our bodies are amazing.

Answer

I have a rare heart condition as well and am 37 weeks pregnant with my 3rd. With all 3 pregnancies I’ve seen a high risk ob. I went in at 20 weeks to see my cardiologist and have an echo/ekg then again at 32 weeks, and will see him 6 weeks after the baby is born. I’ve done great with pregnancy and deliveries. One thing they do differently for me, is they start an epidural pretty quick with labor, so the pain doesn’t stress out my heart. I’ve also got to wear a heart monitor throughout labor. Try not to stress mama, I’m sure your in great hands!

Answer

I had viral cardiomyopathy in 2009. I was told then I would never be able to have a baby in my own, that it was too risky. Right before I got married in 2016, I met with a high risk OBGYN who consulted with my current cardiologist. They both decided I was able to get pregnant and have a vaginal delivery. I just found out I was pregnant on Mother’s Day, and I’m honestly scared to death to deliver vaginally. There is a part of my brain that is afraid my heart will give out. I have a lot to figure out!
