Default MG and Pregancy, Childbirth, Parenting?

Hi everybody,

I am wondering if any women on this site have gone through a pregnancy and/or childbirth, and/or parenting with MG? I don't have a diagnosis yet adn am antibody negative, but I sure have a lot of the symptoms, if intermittently, so am going to get a second opinion from another neuro.

I am 41 and am considering having a child within the next couple of years. I have some wonderful support around me, and I know MG and pregnancy can be a risky combo but I have also heard from 2 doctors that it can go into permanent remission via pregnancy, most likely because of the "immune system reboot" that happens when a woman's system changes to avoid rejecting the new life form as foreign. Has anyone experienced this?

I'd love to hear from any women who have experiences they'd be open to sharing, either here, or via personal message. I really want to make the right choice here... thank you.
