I actually went through the same dilema. I wanted to have my own children and at one point being in my early twentys I was willing to risk it all just to be a mom. Through the years after talking to my neurologist as well as family dr, and perinatologist, I was told not to take the chance at all especially because I am on Imuran which can cause fetal deformaties (Also have had many difficulties with my MG through the years) I was very upset for years about this news but decided that I wasnt getting any younger and now that I was in my early 30s if I was going be a mom its the time to figure out what I was going to do. And so I decided.... Almost 2 years ago I became a foster mom to an 8 month old little boy and we were able to adopt him this past August. I am very happy with the choice I made. Although he's not mine biologically I still am his "MOM". There are so many kids out there who need someone to love them and now my son has me and I didnt have to risk my own health to have him Hope I helped...
