My daughter was born October 28, 2008, on October 30 we found out that she had a meconium ileus. November 7th we got the positive CF results back. We were blindsighted. There has been no history of CF in either family. We had always planned on having more children and now I am torn. I love my daughter so much and even if we had done the amnio it would have in no way changed anything. But now, knowing what I know and living through a few weeks of hell in the NICU I don't know if I can take the chances and conceive naturally again. I know this is a personal decision between my husband and I but I was wondering how other people felt about having more children after knowing that there is a 25% chance of your child having CF.
Also, for those who have CF what are your feelings on PGD. I would hate for my daughter to feel like she is a burden so much so that we did a special procedure to make sure we didn't have another affected child.
Sorry about the rambling post, it is 0245 and I am exhausted!
