I posted a message awhile back, regarding
fluid overload subsequent to csection
blood loss and transfusion. Wondered if
anyone has ever had this problem. The
suggestion that my heart could not keep up
has left me torn with questions. I don't
want my son to be an only child, yet i am
scared and my mother is terrified for me
to have another child. Even though my
echocardiogram turned out fine.

If it's only about your heart, and your
heart doctor says it's okay, go for it. My
friend had heart surgery a little over a
year before she got pregnant. Everything
went smoothly. She is now pregnant again
(about halfway with a 15mo old) and her
heart doctor again says she should be
fine. If you do get get pregnant, I'm sure
you'll be considered high risk, so please
keep up on those appointments! Plus if
they gave you too much blood, you may want
to consider another hospital (just a
thought). Good Luck!
