DS gets one every time he has a clinic appointment. When he was first diagnosed we had clinic appointments every two months, now that he's older he goes 4 times a year.

Cameron gets his done at every cf clinic visit. Our visits are once a month. I did request at the ER for them to do it bc they were starting him on antibiotics bc he had phneumonia. I wanted to know what was in there before it got covered up with the meds.

Every clinic visit, which is currently every 1-2 months (only as frequently as this because they are monitoring her growth (well, lack thereof, really) so closely.

Sara does not grow too well either, but after she started the tube feeding it's gone better. She has been off the tube now for 3-4 weeks, but still eats the "tubing milk" out of a bottle. The reflux is not that bad anymore either after the tube went...She does better on solid foods too, but not "quite there" yet.
You have to excuse my bad English skills, but I hope you all understand me.
I understand from the CF team here that the 4 week interval on the throat culture test is their norm.

Your lil one is just adoreable! What beautiful, big, blue eyes she has!

My Kaleb has a throat culture done at each of his cf clinic appointments which are every 2 months. Sounds like thats pretty much the same for everyone from the posts. Good to know things like this, glad you raised the question! Take good care! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Thank you! Her eyes are even bigger than in this picture actually. This picture was taken only two days before she was admitted to hospital to get IV for her pneumonia in January. (she had that infection going from late November till mid January :S)
Just me that thinks she is cute sitting in that bucket <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I must say Kaleb is very cute too, and I kinda envy all his hair!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">
