Can I have kids?

[Kat Jewel Hoffmann]

I am 20 and my bf and I want kids but not right now. I have cf and I don't know if I can have kids.. I don't know if there is a way to tell if I can or not. If anyone has any good news for me that would be great.

Have you asked your CF doctor? Many CF women do become pregnant and there are many blogs etc. about it. Talk to your doctor and also see your gynaecologist. You are young so you have that advantage.

The answer is YES! Just make sure you are in good health, have a good support system and have your finances in place. Some women with CF have trouble conceiving but there is medical help for that, too.
