Brief Answer:
PREGNANCY IS NOT CONTRAINDICATED.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
THanks for writing to us with your health concern.
My advice to you is - you are not at all crazy to think about having a baby with all these issues.
You just have to be mentally prepared for all the changes that would naturally occur.
First thing is your age.
At 35, the natural capacity for
fertility is much less, than say, what it was , when you were 25.
The capacity of the ovaries to form mature eggs declines.
SO, if you have to make the choice, make it right now, putting it off for more time will lead to more difficulties later.
The next factor is your
hypoglycaemia.
Pregnancy would worsen this condition, however, since you are managing well with diet, it is not an unsurmountable hurdle, as in concert with a proper Dietician, you can very well regulate your blood sugars.
You would be expected to be much more vigilant and thorough in your monitoring and adherence to a
diet plan.
The reflux also would be expected to worsen with pregnancy.
If you are fine on medication for this, then I would say that as long as you are prepared to be on medication ( maybe, even stronger medication ) - this too is not a contraindication to pregnancy.
You are already on medication for reflux.
What other medications are you sensitive to - could you provide a few names.
Pregnancy would require few supplements -
vitamins and minerals, and even those can be circumvented by a tailored diet.
Sensitivity to preservatives and dyes would not come in the way of pregnancy, since your body and mind both are attuned to your allergies, and accordingly you must already be adjusted.
Pregnancy would not cause any additional complications on this front.
Based on your issues, my specific pointers -
1. Plan a pregnancy , if you are prepared for more vigilance, and stricter discipline.
2. Plan it sooner rather than later.
3. Plan it with a positive outlook, and no negativity. Women with far more serious health issues voluntarily embrace motherhood, with good results. You are not as morbid as you think.
All the best.
