PREGNANCY: Pregnancy after Laminectomy

I recently had a laminectomy/discectomy to repair a herniated disc at L4-L5 with a sequestered segment pressing on the right nerve root. I also had a herniated disc at L5-S1 but it was not presenting any pain so they did not operate on that level. I have undergone decompression therapy which may or may not have fixed that level.

My question is this: how soon can I attempt to get pregnant after this surgery? Will it cause any complications/considerations with a pregnancy or the birthing process? I am 25 years old and have never been pregnant before.
