You don’t say how severe your disease is at present. Did you have surgery or a stent or are you taking medication. Talk to your doctor about these things.
It won't be an issue with getting pregnant or keeping the baby. It would be the stress of the delivery. Depending on the severity of disease and your ejection fraction, a planned C-section may be less stressful and a safer option.
