If you hv a heart operation and you're pregnant, this pregnancy won't affect your operation?

Without more: Information will be very difficult to give you an opinion. I assumed you already have a heart operation, possibly meaning that, what was wrong was corrected. But, sometimes not everything can be corrected at one time. After a heart operation i imaging you have been follow up by a cardiologist. They were supposed to orient you about child bearing. Physiological changes occur during pregnancy that.

No, it will: Pregnancy poses special risks for heart surgery. Hope this helps.
