I'm thinking about marrying a girl who's had heart valve surgery. She's 27 and on meds her cardiologist says she'll need forever. I'm worried about what this means for us, especially if we want to have kids. Could her medication cause any side effects or issues with pregnancy? And what should we expect for her health and our life together?
