The treatment you receive will depend on what condition you have. Your cardiologist will provide you with a tailored antenatal care plan.
This may mean that you must change the medicines you take. For example, ACE inhibitors (a group of medicines used to treat heart failure) are not recommended during pregnancy. Your specialist will discuss this with you.
Do not stop taking your medicine without talking to your specialist first.
During your pregnancy, follow any advice your specialist gives you about managing your condition. Low-impact exercise, such as swimming and walking, is usually a good idea to keep you fit, but always speak to your midwife or doctor before starting any new exercise programme.
