i was going to put in my two cents, but never mind i'll keep my mouth shut. i'm just glad i'm having a baby girl in november and i'm going to take care of her to my fullest ability. just because i have cf isn't stopping me from anything <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> and no i don't not know if my baby will have cf. and if she does i will care for her just like i've been cared for. its a crapshoot with every pregnancy you have. you can be the two healthiest people and have something wrong with your child or have a healthy baby and then down the road the healthy parent get diagnosed with cancer, etc.

My husband and I chose not to have children. This was not a decision we reached easily, but we know it's the right thing for us. If you'd like to read our thoughts and reasons (and I suppose our defense) about our decision, please visit by blog:

I do see it as you holding yourself back and letting your CF limit what you do REGARDING a family.

What you fail to see is that this decision isn't about ME. It's about a potential child.

It's not about ME missing out on anything. It's about a child missing out on a parent who is about to dedicate themselves to raising the child.

Take your own advise Julie then and butt out. If you respond to what's going on, you're contributing to the conversastion.
