It all depends on the kind of HPV you have. Low grade no. But high grade yes because the cervix sometimes is too weakened and harder to hold the baby in later stages of pregnancy. If you have warts. They can return during pregnancy because of the hormone changes and therefore it is encouraged to have a c-section.

I have 2 sons which are living proof that you can have HPV and still have children. I also had endometriosis at the time. The doc didn't think I could get pregnant and were going to put me on fertility pills and I was already pregnant! Good luck - hope this helps!

HPV doesn't prevent preg. however, it can have complications with delivery if there are lots of vaginal warts. I have given birth 5 times (3 live births) without any complications.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
