I would work really hard on getting your lung function up some. Compliance & dedication are essential. 42% isnt very high considering what affects a pregnancy can have on a CFers body. Even the best pregnancy like what I had still leaves you with the after care of the child and your health. It will take its toll even with the best of support system. As far as your husband being in the service.....it is something to consider. My best friend from high school (no CF) is pregnant & worried to death her hubby will be deployed before the baby is born. Its a risk they were willing to take. It also took her 18 months to get pregnant and she had no CF. Just older (38) & on birth control pills for years..........Do the best you can with your health and the rest you play by ear!

Hi lauren i want to thank you for your quick response this is what i thought the case was but what makes it harder for me to come to terms with is i feel fine within myself on a day to day basis and dont notice that my lungs are that low. So believing the doctors when they tell me the stats results for getting pregnant in this condtion is hard. But saying this i will take the advice you have given and try my hardest to increase my lungs. As for the questions that you have put across my partner and i have discussed all of these and there outcomes and have decided that provided my health does improve it is the route we want to go down.
Thank you once again and i am sure i will be seeking more advice soon
