Summer of surgery ahead!

Quite honestly, ADRs are relatively new to the world and performed mostly on post-baby women. (Men don't count in this scenerio). However, of those woman who we know about, post ADR pregnancies posed no special problems. Carrying an infant/toddler on their hips, along with the bending of picking up and putting down, not to mention floor time - also appeared to go smoothly. Even single level fusion seemed to pose no additional problems.

I would think pain would hamper everything - pregnancy, delivery and toting, not to mention the quick temper that goes along with increased pain.

I'm glad you're rethinking your surgical plan and as far as future pregnancies, should be fine, as long as your surgical outcome is positive, based on limited history available.

I do wish you every luck and I'm glad M&P are willing to pay for the best if need be.
