Brief Answer:
Unless it's severe, there are no effects.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Mild to moderate spinal scoliosis generally doesn't affect child bearing. Only in severe cases of scoliosis with decreased pelvic volume there may be need for cesarean section.

There is no need for special care, only general measures and restrictions ( avoid weights, excessive bending etc) used for pregnancy. Hope this answers your question.

If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
