Are you going to see a Midwife because they will take blood samples or Sickle Cell and Thalessimia? Your blood group, urine tests and things and fill out alot of paper work.

i have already got tested for that and so has my fiancè we are both non carrier's of CF i'm hopin everythin will be ok for you and your baby but on the other side if CF is known on birth your baby has a greater chance of bein able to prevent infection all the best xx xx keep me posted xx xx

You should see if they do any genetic testing. I am 7 weeks pregnant and recently tested positive for the Cystic Fibrosis gene. we are currently waiting my husbands results. As long as he does not have it our baby will be fine but if he does than it is a problem. i would not wish anyone to ever go through the stress I am under right now. Good luck at your appt
