Risk is truly low: The likelihood for a baby to have ms when mother has diagnosis is quite low, actually about 3-5% at most. However, important that you stay stable so you are able to care for your child. Supplement vitamin d, take a potent medication which is oral or infused, and work closely with an ms specialty neurologist. Could work out very well.
