Hi everyone

I finally got a diagnosis in march of lupus feels really good to have a name although I wish it wasn't that.

Anyway some good news I'm 8weeks pregnant. The rhuemys are happy for me to stay on treatment etc but this is first pregnancy that I'm taking the medications I am. I already have 2 children.

Just wondered if anyone else out there has had a successful pregnancy and how was their arthritis after the birth?

Thanks in advance

Hi
Congratulations on your good news! I hope that you can feel well during your pregnancy. I can`t advise on how you will feel as I was diagnosed with my arthur after my children were born.
I am sure someone else will be along to give you their experience soon
Take care

Huge congratulations Lulu! (the baby, not the lupus!)

I don't know anything from experience, but I have read that a lot of auto-immune diseases may go into remission while you're pregnant. Hope that will be the case for you too! x
