Q: Pregnancy and Degenerative Disc Disease

I am 29 years old and have been diagnosed with multi-level degenerative disc disease. I recently had surgery to repair 2 locations in my lumbar spine and am expected to have several more back surgeries in my lifetime. There is one problem, my husband and I, really want to have a baby. Is it possible for my spine and my body to handle a pregnancy?
