I am on it. I have been for about 3 years now. I started it to help
regulate my periods and my horribly oily skin. So, yeah..so far so
good. I'm on Yasmin.
OH GREAT! I have been using distilled water for a year now to wash
out my sinuses with this pre-packaged sinus rinse stuff. My sinus
Dr. told me to after my last surgery. Effin great!! Seems
like everything suggested to fix one part of this disease causes
another even bigger problem...I AM SO...

Hey there. Welcome! Ok so this is something I can relate to
so I'm going to post.<br>

Growing up my parents did everything they could to keep me away
from cig. smoke. When it was unavoidable it didn't seem to bother
me as much as it does now. In HS/early college I was going to clubs...
I'm feeling a little saddened...I heard about it yesterday. I guess
that means all new text books for science in the schools.<br>

ok...so this thread has officially left the building...and since my
question was answered ohh...some 130 posts ago..I think it's time I
go with it out that door. Plus, my head is spinning, because I
cannot keep track of whose saying what....<br>

Thanks for all the great info and the sharing...
Seana, I agree....Having a child out of wedlock isn't
"wrong" (whose to say what's right or wrong) and it
<i>certainly</i> doesn't make you a bad parent. If it were
wrong...my brother, whom I love dearly, might not be here today.
Yes, he was an accidental pregnancy, but the world would not be...
Thank you to all who have given me helpful advice and not just
judged me. I really appreciate the understanding (not necessarily
agreeing) from those people. <br>
<br>
To those who have called me immature and told me I am not
adult enough to make "adult decisions", I am sorry for
whatever I may...
Thank you all who have given me good advice. I will be sure to
consider everything when I am ready to have kids. I have always
been a planner and this is the reason I even started this topic.
It's not because I am not an "adult" and am recklessly
trying to have a kids. Quite the contrary...I...
I already said that I wouldn't want my child to have CF, hence the
reason I said that I <i>hope</i> my BF isn't a carrier. I know I
wouldn't want to have my child go through what I have been through.
And I never said that I would have a child even if he is a carrier.
I said I was unsure about...
Sue....yes I am soo exhausted..I am on week 2 now... and that's
exactly what I meant Sue.<br>
<br>
It just another injustice created at the hands of CF and it sucks
to have to give up so much. There is so much that
"normal" people take for granted and we don't get to
experience things the way...

I kinda see your point, but none of us chose to have CF....it
wasn't...
I meant that I don't think I could handle having a child with CF
because I think about all the time and energy went into having me
and I wonder if I could physically handle it.<br>
<br>
Doesn't it make any of you who say people with CF should not
want to risk having children and passing on the...
Yeah, Allie.. you're right that you can love someone without your
genetics...and I could get over the notion that I was never able to
carry my own child, but I think a part of me would never really
feel like he/she was totally mine.
Well, obviously we aren't going to have kids any time soon. But a
bond with a child is important to me. The parents thing doesn't
matter as much to me. I know my mom would accept my decision to
adopt and I think my BF would too, but my BF has always dreamed of
having his "own" son.
Well, I dunno.. I guess I don't feel like there would be as much of
a connection as an adopted mom. I have an adopted cousin and there
just seemed to be less of a bond between him and his parents.
I am the only girl in my family so, for me to have a child is a big
deal me and my mom. And my BF...
