1. I don't have any personal experience with kidney transplants, but a quick search seems to indicate post-transplant pregnancy is possible, although somewhat risky. Here are some reputable-looking websites: http://www.transplantliving.org/afterthetransplant/pregnancy/pregnancy.aspx http://www.kidney.org/fusetalk/forum/categories.cfm?catid=60&entercat=y (This is a discussion board where you can talk to other transplantees.) Definitely talk to the doctor who performed the transplant as well as you OB/GYN before getting pregnant, though. Good luck!
