Folic acid! That's what they say if you want to have kids after a certain age. Make sure you start taking folic acid supplements, as well as calcium and iron, and get those in your system before anything happens.

I am 37, and I would like to have one child... but I can't imagine dealing with these symptoms and having a child. If I were in remission more regularly, I'd probably feel differently.

Chelzer I'll be the "auntie"!!! Okay????

I'm so excited for you!

More than likely you will have an exacerbation after the birth (my youngest was 6 months old for mine) BUT you will have 9 months of more than likely NO MS problems!

Read Lorna Moorehead's Coffee in my Cereal.....she talks about this in it ! She is funny to read !

TAke Care!

Of course I'll keep you updated! Thank you everyone for helping me feel more comfortable about the decision. I see the new Neuro on Thursday and then after he "clears" me I will go to the Prenatalogist. I will let ya'll know how it goes with the dr's and when we are pregnant.

Thanks so much everyone!
