How dangerous is becoming pregantafter an ablation?

I don't pretend to know much about ablation, but everything I have heard says that pregnancy after ablation is not recommended.  I would work with your OB and follow his or her advice on this.  Take care, Amanda

I just recently found out that I am pregnant after having the ablation done 7 years ago.  At that time my doctor informed me that I would not be able to have any more children and never gave it a second thought in the last 7 years.  I am just very concerned and worried due to the fact most of everything I have read is very sketchy and confusing.  I see the doctor on Wednesday and will have ultra sound.  Never thought this would happen considering I am 43 and sending my oldest off to college and youngest will go in a couple years!  

So of course I am confused and scared!  Any support or info would help tremendously!

Hi Jen and welcome!  If I could make a suggestion...start this as a new post.  You have posted on the end of an old one and will probably get more responses if you start your own.  

Pregnancy after ablation can indeed be worriesome.  I don't have a lot of advice to give you except that I am sure your Dr. will be monitoring you very very closely and will work with you. It has been done successfully at times and I hope the outcome is the same for you. I truly wish you well. Amanda
