Considering a pregnancy with rrms

Hi All, Hope you are well. I am looking for some information or advice regarding pregnancy and how it affects ms. I have read that the relapse rate increases after birth. I just wanted to hear peoples experiences and try to get some positive perspective on it. I am looking to switch to copaxone before conceiving. What are the severity of relapses after birth? I have poor vision in my left eye which is where my diagnosis came from. I am still able to drive and work which is why I am quite scared of going ahead with pregnancy as it feels like a Russian roulette of what could happen to me. I hope you might be able to give me any advice or share any stories? Thanks
