Is there evidence that pregnancy causes the mother to develop an autoimmune disease?

Amanda asked:


My grandmother and a cousin both developed severe rheumatic autoimmune diseases after pregnancy, when being previously fine before pregnancy. I have not been able to find any additional evidence of pregnancy causing an autoimmune disease to develop, but am wondering if anyone knows of a link between the two, either clinical or anecdotal.

I realize that pregnancy has effects on women who already have autoimmune diseases, but am trying to weigh the risks of developing an illness from being pregnant. Any additional information would be very helpful. Thank you!

My husband and I do not use protection and we had *** last week sometime, not sure of the exact date, and I am not sure if what I am feeling could be pregnancy or it is al in my head. I felt sick on day and everything smelled bad, but it only lasted one day. My ******* are a little sore along the sides, but not enough to bother me. My face has been breaking out like crazy and I have more vaginal discharge than normal. Help?

Dutch asked:


I just went off the pill 2 months ago, and I’m supposed to get an IUD next month. For the 2 months between my boyfriend and I have been relying on condoms, but one of them broke early Wednesday morning. I think I may have ovulated between Friday and Sunday. What are the chances that pregnancy will occur?
