Hi Sarah

Many women have successful pregnancies with scoliosis as Susan stated. We have had previous discussion on that topic here on the site: https://www.empowher.com/community/ask/does-lumbar-scoliosis-affect-pregnancy-and-sex.

I think the most important things to do are to see your ortho and your ob/gyne and talk to them about pregnancy in your specific situation with your history and see what they say. They will have dealt with this many times before and will be able to ease your worries as well as help you plan for a safe and successful pregnancy. The main problem you will probably have to deal with is pain, because pregnancy is going to put a lot of stress on your lower back and pelvis. But you can plan ahead for how to deal with it.

Beware of anyone online saying say can magically reverse your scoliosis. If that were true, none of us would have it. If you have further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to write again.

Good luck to you.
