Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) As you are taking treatment for Slip Disk for last 1 and 1/2 years, then you can plan for second baby hopefully. Above medicines should be continued.

2) You need a follow-up examination to your Neurologist or Orthopedician before planning to 2nd pregnancy. It will help to know the current status of your disk problem and determine whether you can bear extra weight.

3) If your condition is improved from previous phase, then complications during pregnancy will be much LESS. However, you need adequate bed rest.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
