Hello Amy, I would suggest you give the BHF nurses a call. They are available Monday- Friday 9-7 and weekends and bank holidays 10-4. The number is 0300-330-3311.

Hi my Daughter was diagnosed with a wpw only a few years ago. She has had 4 children all with no problems. But at the time did not know she had this. Speak to the bhf nurses, your heart specialist, or your Gp. They will be able to tell you more.

Regards Dee.

Hi, I’ve got WPW, I have given birth both via c-section and had a VBAC. I was fine both times, there a certain drugs you can’t have if you need to have a c-section. Thanks Rachel
