Your heart just like your pregnancy is unique. We also know that pregnancy can put a lot of stress on your heart especially if you have a pre-existing cardiovascular disease, in particular congenital heart disease. While pregnant, your body goes through complex changes that can make many existing heart conditions worse, sometimes leading to problems throughout pregnancy and especially during delivery.

Our experts, Dr. Michael Earing and Dr. Joana Lopes Perdigao will discuss how to reduce the risks for you and your baby and answer your questions.
