  • Having multiple kids once you’ve had one with CF

    Posted by tre-larosa on June 26, 2019 at 12:30 pm

    A divisive topic I’ve seen in the CF community is whether or not it’s ethical to have a child once you’ve had one with CF already (or if the prospective parents know they are both carriers), therefore existing a 25% chance that the next child will have CF. I am a second child with CF. My parents chose to have me 5 years after having my sister.

    1. Are you a first, second, or n-th child with CF? Which of those?
    2. What are your thoughts – Should people risk bringing another child with CF?
    3. Elaborate on those thoughts in a civil, kind way.
