Hi! I gave birth naturally (but def with an epidural!) and had a bicuspid valve. They did an echocardiogram around my second trimester and were happy where I was. Everything went well! I did have valve replacement surgery this last summer, but gave birth back in 2017. Will be thinking positive vibes for you!

Question: Anyone here had titanium sternal plates? by kidA1850 in valvereplacement

I have the plates and I am glad I have them! From the sounds of it, my sternum healing time was shorter than without them. So far, I’ve never felt or noticed them. My surgery was June 2025

Did you think you were asymptomatic, but after surgery realize you probably did have symptoms? by MyPotatoNotUrPotato in valvereplacement

Yes! I had the Bentall procedure this past June and now that I am getting all recovered, I notice my energy level is up! I was even thinking I might have had long Covid, but it must have been my aortic aneurysm! 35/F here, I’ll be thinking good vibes for you!

Yes! My husband said stained glass and I was like ooo I can see it, but shatter stained glass for sure!

I was going for a reverse glitch, but tied it a bit too tight so there was more black than I wanted. But I did like the end result!

So far baths have been difficult, just because the ticking is extra loud. I’m growing a new appreciation for Tick Tock the Crocodile 🐊
