    History of Cystic Fibrosis

    My first Ob/Gyn for my second pregnancy was like, "so which one of you is the carrier?" My husband and I looked at each other and said "we both are...that's kind of how it works." We weren't too sad when we had to find another doctor. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

    Does the sweat chloride number tell you anything?

    I was told that the sweat test results don't have any correlation to prognosis or physical symptoms.

    When do you go to the Doc?

    thanks all! I talked to the CF docs and they scheduled an appt with her pediatrician because they are worried about an ear infection. I've been doing saline spray and medicated baby rub. We also increased her vest to 3x a day and pulmozyme to 2x a day. Seems to help some, but I'm sure...

    When do you go to the Doc?

    I'm sure there's a post for this already, but.... My daughter is 18 months old. She didn't have any illness until 14 months when she had her first ear infection (it seems to correspond with teething and her molars coming in). She had another about a month and half later. She started with...

    Nebulizer Parts and Sterilization??

    I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the proper forum...but here goes. We just started doing the nebulizer with pulmozyme for my daughter. The guy came to show us about set up but only the nanny was here when he came. Do you all clean the nebulizer pieces every day? If so, how? I have those...

    Doing CPT (clapping) on your infant

    we always did it flat or sitting up, that's how they showed us at the clinic...I can't imagine anyone just keeping their child in a head-down position for any extended length of time for any reason.

    we need to know what ?s to ask

    It's so difficult to know what questions to ask in the beginning and perfectly normal not to ask right away. At first you are just trying to process all the information they are throwing at you and accept that your baby is sick. I had a million questions and none at all; partly because the CF...
