Not sure about that one 
. They would probaly prefer to wait untill the baby has been born.
I wonder how long you would have to wait before you could have a natural birth after having a graft. Or maybe it wouldn't matter. Just thinking about all the pushing and pressure!!
Gone all wobbly at the knees now

The answer is probably No, but may depend on how far gone you are.
Simply because post graft we are advised to avoid heavy lifting and straining as this might pop a stitch or two.
Well I do not think you could strain more if you tried while giving birth.
Another one where we could do with input from one of the proffessionals?
