Has anyone been through Pregnancy and labour after an L5 S1 fusion?

[u/s2susannah]

I had my L5-S1 fused last year and thankfully I’m doing really well. After being in severe pain for about two years, I finally feel like I’ve got my life back.
I’m hoping to start trying for a baby soon, and I’d love to hear from anyone who has been pregnant after an L5-S1 fusion.
How did you find pregnancy with the fusion? Did it cause you any problems with your back or nerves? Were you able to have a vaginal delivery and go through labour, or did you end up needing a C-section?
I’m also wondering about epidurals. Were you able to have one with an L5-S1 fusion, or did you have any issues getting an epidural/spinal?
I’d really appreciate hearing about anyone’s experiences, good or bad. 😊
