I work for a Pediatric Cardiology group (doing computer work). These questions are not really OB/GYN questions, they are questions to ask your Cardiologist. In our doctor's group, we have an adult clinic (for adults with congenial heart problems). They see many adult women with congenial heart problems who want to know if they can get pregnant. There is also the question that if you can get pregnant without any health problems to yourself, what is the likelyhood that your heart problems could be hereditary.
