Pregnant and waiting on genetic testing

Looking for some reassurance. 32F Pregnant with my first child and my midwife referred me to a geneticist because of my medical history. Shes fairly sure I have a connective tissue disorder and I have quite a few physical characteristics that line up with Loey-Dietz. Has anyone else had no indication of heart problems but after being diagnosed found they have tortuous arteries/ abnormal aorta? I’ve never had shortness of breath or any cardiac problems but now I’m worried about my heart and my child’s future. Did anyone else get diagnosed while pregnant and what did you do after you gave birth? Did it affect your decision to have more children? Won’t have any answers for a few weeks and just looking to hear other people’s stories
