See a cardiologist: It will depend on what type of defect you had, what repair you underwent and what residual issues you were left with if any. Most repaired forms of congenital heart defects (defects of the heart you were born with) allow you to live a perfectly normal life which includes having babies, but you need to get checked.

Go ahead: As long as you have been healthy, pregnancy should be normal as long as the heart problem corrected at the time of surgery has not returned.
