I have an enlarged heart?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Research is divided about whether it is safe to have more children after being diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy. Research studies and case studies indicate it depends on the severity of the cardiomyopathy and whether it reverses itself. If a woman develops a severe case and it does not improve after six months, she probably will be advised not to have more children. Research indicates that another pregnancy can worsen a pre-existing heart problem. In some instances, it can kill the woman. If the peripartum cardiomyopathy resolved itself within about six months, research is divided on whether it is safe to have more children. Some women have uneventful pregnancies with no redeveloping heart problem, but others develop the condition again.
Consult your cardiologist.

I'm not a doctor. However, if you suffered cardiac hypertrophy due to increased hemodynamics from pregnancy alone in the absence of disease, then your heart should naturally atrophy and return to normal size soon. However, if you have heart disease or complications from pregnancy which you've failed to mention, another pregnancy may be contraindicated. You should address any concerns to a physician familiar with your medical history and present condition.

Good luck and good health!!
