So I have one child and had a VERY rough time after delivery with MS. Relapses, surgery, emotional turmoil.. I want to ask moms with MS who decided to have other kids how you managed postpartum and also moms with one child do you want more or because of ms do you feel it best to just have one. The first delivery and experience almost took me out, (LITERALLY) but kinda am like do I want her to have a sibling for her.

@A MyMSTeam Member How strong is your support from the person you consider conceiving second child with? The answer to that question is very important. If the general concern is health risk, have you considered adaption as an option?

I have2 kids but both birthing processes were very hard on me. As well as being gest diabetic... I wouldn't trade them for the world but it's even just hard and frustrating to raise them, cleaning, cooking, lifting them up... Hang in there. I understand. But you know, if you have to have another child, don't forget about adoption... Lots of kids need homes out there. 😁Hope this helps.
