Your husband's illness will not likely affect your unborn baby (if you conceive) unless it is a genetic illness. Good luck!My husband and I want to have a baby but he has been really ill. If I do concieve, will it effect my baby?
It all depends what you mean by ';really ill'; and you may want to clarify that because without that information it's impossible to answer your question..



well i don't know. how about this don't have sex till he's well. then you don't have to worry about it.
Pulmonary edema is not transmissable so you should not worry about getting pregnant, it will not hurt the baby. The only problem I see with trying to conceive with his illness is whether his poor health or the medicines he is taking has damaged his sperm production. You could talk to his doctor about it and if necessary get a sperm analysis done. Other than that, there should be no problem. I am trying to conceive with a ';very ill'; husband myself. He has very aggressive spinal disc degeneration and they are thinking an unknown autoimmune disease (like MS, lupus, etc.). While it will not affect our children, the fact that he is often sick and feverish causes sperm damage frequently, which impairs our efforts. I also have a pretty serious fertility problem that I take medicine for, so we've got a long road ahead of us. I can say that between my OB/Gyn, his spine specialist and his urologist no doctor has said we shouldn't try, just that it will be more difficult and we will probably have to take medicine.
It depends what was wrong with him.
you need to be specific, need details on what your husband is suffering from. As long he not having fertility problems or having herpes/STDs/HIV etc, you baby should be doing fine. You might need to talk to your doctor to check your options. You might need to consider bring out a kid in this world with a very ill father (again depends on what your hubby's suffering). Good luck!
