Desiring Another Child After Postpartum Cardiomyopathy Diagnosis

So I am a mom of 4 daughters 20, 18, 7, and 6. I had my last daughter in 2016. Every pregnancy was great until the last. I ended near death right after I gave birth to my daughter. I was diagnosed with Postpartum Cardiomyopathy a rare heart failure due to pregnancy. Was just wondering if anyone here has ever had this or any heart health but then gave birth to another healthy baby since being diagnosed. I am desiring to have another child but I'm s ared of the outcome.

I had my daughter last year and now I’m getting tested for this bc I’ve been having so many heart problems. My cardiologist said there’s a high possibility I’ll never have another child unless I or the child wants to end up dead. It kills me bc I only have one child and I’m 21 and want more children so bad I can’t hardly stand it.

I've always wanted a houseful of kids but my team of Drs are against me having anymore too. I only have the one (2020) and because of the pandemic they almost didn't catch my condition.
