Congrat Vanessa on your pregnacy. I have cf and I carried my daughter full term. She is now 5 years old.

You can take your meds. The meds will not hurt the baby. What they might do , what they did for me was I had to see a High Risk OB. With a High Risk Ob you get more ultrasounds and alittle me watchful care I say.

With my pregnancy I went into the hospital a little more than I usually do. I was IV's some of the time. But I was the best breathing and I have ever been. My PFT's went up really high the highest they have ever been.

I had a natural child birth. My daughter came out perfectly fine. So I wish you all the best.

Just wondering...can those who have gone through a pregnacy with CF...can you still use the vest? If so..just for a certain period of time?

Good luck! and congratulations. I had my son at age 22 and everything was fine. I did go off all my meds except for my creon for that pregnancy. My husband and I are TTC and this time I felt I shouldn't go off my inhalers and my doc assured me that everything would be fine. I know some mothers here have taken a lot more than inhalers and they had healthy kids too.

Congrats Vanessa!!!!! Have you visited HollyCatheryn's website about CF and female fertility? <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.geocities.com/murrensnaturemama/index.html">http://www.geocities.com/murrensnaturemama/index.html</a> It's a great site and you could probably bounce a lot of questions off of her too if there are some left over that aren't answered on here. I'm hoping for a wonderful pregnancy for you!

I don't remeber what the reasons were exactly as it was a rather emotional time for me. But when i realized i was pregnant my Dr. told me to stop Tobi immediately. Like I said i don't remember what the reasons were, but there you have it. Wishing you a happy healthy little one!

There are certain meds you cant use. When I was pregnant they had to switch stuff around to meds that dont penetrate the placenta. I had no real problems with the new meds. I worked fulltime thru my whole pregnancy. I did develope gestational diabetes which I controlled with insulin since I couldnt get the hang of the diet thing. I also delivered 4 weeks early by c section as a precaution to me due to my history of hemoptysis. I enjoyed every minute of my pregnant. I had a great one & looked/felt good. There are some moms that have had problems, but as a whole I think we do pretty well. Remember that this whole child bearing this is "fairly" new. For many, many years CFers werent living to child bearing age. Congrats & enjoy every minute of it!

I have had to very uneventful pregnancys, I did not stop any of my medication. I started Tobi every other month, and did IV therapy at 32weeks and 38 weeks. So if you are not on any major meds you should be able to stay on everything. Good Luck and congats.
