I do not know much about CIPD in pregnancy.  However, I thought that the MS symptoms often wane in pregnancy and then flair after delivery.  Of course, sometimes it runs a different course.  I would try to be as stress-free as possible and plan on some help after delivery, if possible.  At least I would discuss this with my doctors and loved one(s).  I would plan for any problems that could arise and then just try to enjoy my pregnancy and my family and baby.  Planning should help remove the stress.  And then, if everything goes great-- so much the better!

Of course, we do not know why you were hospitalized after your pregnancy or who is telling you these things and why.  But, I would pray to God for strength and wisdom and peace.

Hopefully, everything will be fine.  Congratulations and God bless you and your family!!!

Hi,  didn't see this post when I made my reply to your post about natural delivery.  What is CIPD?

Why were you hospitalised during your last pregancy?

Don't panic.  Take it one day at a time.  Stay positive.  Give some more info and maybe someone can give more input.
