[quote=Anonymous]This thread may be an old one, but I was in the same situation! Tore both meniscus and partial ACL playing soccer in May, found out I was pregnant in June. Docs postponed surgery until 2nd trimester (August) and both OB and Ortho cleared me for surgery. I just finished the knee arthroscopy 2 days ago and am doing great! I got spinal anesthesia (awake during surgery), heard the baby's steong heartbeat before and after surgery, and all is okay. I haven't been in pain, just took acetaminophen when knee was pretty sore. I'm almost walking now, and I can say doing the surgery now vs 7 mo from now after baby is born was the best decisionI couldn't walk for much longer with the damage I had--surgery was necessary, but not emergent.
