Hello laura,
I have read your query.
The answer is- IBD doesnot affect fertility. So it should not interfere with your getting pregnant unless you have pelvic crohns disease and had multiple surgeries which might interfere in normal sexulal activity.
Hope this helps
Do get back in case you have further queries
