Hi everyone,

Thanks for starting this topic Paulette; it is a very important one. Seneca girl is right...we do need more info.

I too am at that point of trying to figure out how my husband and I are going to be able to have children. I just had my 3-level ADR 3 weeks ago with Dr. B and although I am doing very well, I would be afraid to put my body through a pregnancy before one year. I did ask one of the doctors that assists Dr. Bertagnoli, and he also said to wait a year. I'll be 38 then, so we are facing timing issues too.

I just knew that before the ADR surgery, my back would have never made it through a pregnancy and if by some miracle it would have made it through the pregancy, I know I wouldn't have been able to lift my baby in and out of a crib multiple times a day. At least with my new discs, I have a better chance!!

I meet with Dr. Yue (in Ct) in a few weeks and I was planning on asking him about pregnancy. I'll let everyone know what he has to say.
