Had a kidney biopsy today

Not asking for medical advice, but I'm trying to see how everyone else's first day of kidney biopsy went. For me, no real pain, I feel sore and the area just feels off, but no pain. I did get a sudden sharp pain, like if I was passing a clot, and then I felt fine. The first time I peed, it was super dark red. I was told peeing red or pink was normal, but I don't know if super dark red is still considered okay. I've been lying down on my back and ate some food, but otherwise I feel okay. Has anyone felt the same symptoms should I call mu doctor for the super dark red pee?

3B kidney function and want to get pregnant

Hello Reddit, first time posting here. I'm 32 this year and I recently got married. I've been diabetic my whole life and I knew I would have complications, I just never thought it would include pregnancy. I wanted to get pregnant at 35, enjoy our honeymoon phase, and not stress about my health, but I recently found out that having an eGFR of 38 can have a low chance of a full-term pregnancy or a pregnancy at all. My question is, has anyone with such a low eGFR and blood pressure issues had more than one pregnancy? Or a single successful pregnancy where their kidneys were not affected more or at all? I'm looking for hope, but also trying to understand that maybe having a child is not in the cards for me. Thank you.
