im sorry but i dont really know the answer this question, but my feeling is yes you will be able to have children and a natural brith, i am having the surgery soon and they havent told me about not being able to have children, and also your doesnt sound very serious if you dont need surgery so thats a good thing! so if you dont need it and i havent heard of no one being able to have children due to scolosis and thats the kinda thing they wud talk about for sure.
im here if you need any help or support :) Isla xxxx

You can- I had a natural birth, you should not have any problems. Not only that just because you have Scoliosis doesnt necessarily mean your children will. My daughter is almost 15 and she's fine. Just be sure to watch carefully for signs of it. I wish you the best-Bonnie

I have had 3 children. I am 34 and was diagnosed at 12. Mine were c-sections because of short umbilical cords, but I would have had natural if not for that.
