Doctor, Can I
Have a Baby?
Marilyn is a pretty, young
woman, very much in love
with her fiance. But her family
doesn’t think she should marry.
“You can’t, Marilyn! With
tuberculosis, you can't take a
chance.”
It’s true that Marilyn has
had TB for a year. She spent
the first six months in the
hospital and is still under med
ical care at home. It will be at
least a year before she is com
pletely well. But she's a good
patient, making fine progress.
Can she live a normal life?
Can she marry and have a
family?
The answers must come from
her doctor. But chances are
good that he will say, “Yes.”
Today’s evidence shows that
pregnancy has no effect on the
mothers disease. It does not
cure TB, nor does it make the
illness worse. This information
comes from a specialist on the
subject. Dr. J. Arthur Myers
has treated over four hundred
mothers with tuberculosis and
has examined their 872 child
ren.
The thing for Marilyn to do
is to discuss the matter with
her doctor. If he gives his
blessings to her marriage, she
will have to see him regularly,
just as she would if she were
single. Her family members —
including her husband - will
have to get regular skin tests.
Just to make sure they don’t
have TB.
If Marilyn (with the doctor’s
approval) has a baby, she may
nurse and care for him -- IF
the doctor says she is no longer
infectious. There is no reason
why her TB history need inter- '
sere with a happy marriage ,
and motherhood.
Children are not born with
TB nor do they inherit it. They
can catch it from mother if her
disease is active. But only if
modern preventive measures
are not carefully followed.
