20 year old w/CF who wants to know more about pregnancy.

[mamaScarlett]

I am 28, dx at 1 yr old, and have a 3 yr old. I was also one of the ones told my whole life that I'd never have children. But that changed. My fev1 was 75% pre-pregnancy, dipped down during and after, and has sinced risen back up to my pre-preg #s. (with tons of hard work!)
<br />
<br />I think you need to stop reading all the 'sad' stories and start reading the good ones. Bc theres plenty of them. Of course we know what Cf does, its not a mystery. But for me, I've learned about myself that dwelling on the 'what ifs' of life only bring me down. That type of thinking just brings misery to my life-maybe some can handle it, but I know that I can't.
<br />So I chose to dwell on the moms with Cf that are making it, like me. And I chose to live-planning on my future, planning on being here. Not the other way around.
<br />Its not denial, its a choice. Yes, things can go any way, but whether I worry for the next 20 yrs or not, its not going to make any difference. So I'd rather live my life free of that.
<br />
<br />When it comes to being a mom with Cf, whether you give birth or adopt-its all about COMPLIANCE and scheduling. Thats the only way you can make a success of it.
<br />Keep reading the positive stories, and whether you have children or not, you'll be the best at whatever you do.

I agree with that Christian.
'Positivity' is the key and a choice.
It's just so easy to give in to the negativity that c.f brings with it...but at the end of the day...we all have a choice stay the course of LIFE and not let our spirit's get down...not to be a victim of c.f.

Know this is a little off subject...but I'm currently working on a cd single of one of my original songs that I hope will inspire others to NEVER GIVE UP as you journey through life.
