thanks for all the replys!
just to make it clear, after my dd was dx'd i decided i would not have another child UNLESS it was ivf/pgd because i would never want to put another child through such a hard life....

with out dd in the nicu for the first 3 weeks of her life and dh and i stressed out to the max we both made a bad decision and had unprotected sex.... it wasnt to get pregnant..

eitherway i took a test today and it was completly a BFN! i was 80% happy and 20% sad. i want more children for sure and i miss being pregnant alot but i know this is not how i want to go about it... i just dont know if well ever have the money for pgd <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

I am so glad you feel that way about IVF/pgd. I get so frustrated reading about those who don't believe it is a big deal to have another child blindly when the first has CF. My family has 4 children 3 with CF. My brother was 15 before they finally figured out what was wrong with him and consequently had the rest of us tested. For the price of a car you can do IVF. I wish there was a foundation for people just like you who want more children and want to do the right thing. When my brothers died, my mom cried knowing she gave this disease. She didn't know. Today we do.
