With the appropriate genetic counselling, and a planned approach to care, positive pregnancy experiences and outcomes for mothers with EB and their babies can be achieved. Despite the limited evidence base, it is clear that women with EB can have successful pregnancies and deliveries, even in more severe EB subtypes.
