Hi all,
I am 15 weeks pregnant and very interested in the pregnancies of other women with CF. If you have been pregnant and would like to participate, I think this would be really helpful for those already pregnant or considering pregnancy. Only answer the questions you feel comfortable asking. Here are the questions and my answers.
# of pregnancies: 1
FEV1 prior to pregnancy: 83
lowest FEV1: 67 so far
FEV1 post: NA for me
CFRD: yes--my reason for asking this is because I've heard that it frequently causes preterm labor
preterm labor: NA
weight of child at birth: NA
uterine bleeding/spotting: yes--Am I the only one?
# of IV treatments during preg: 1 so far
IV drugs: Vancomycin, Ceftazidime, TOBI (inhaled)
time it took to conceive: 13 years
weight gained during pregnancy: -1 pound so far
Anything else you want to add: THANKS FOR TAKING PART! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
