Here is a link that has some information for you.  According to this site, it is very difficult for someone on dialysis to get pregnant and about 50% of those pregnancies resulted in miscarriage; all live babies were born prematurely.  So, YES it is possible for you to get pregnant and carry a baby but you would be a very high risk patient.
