Pregnant carrier of CF with 2 teenagers (same father)

If I already have 2 children with the same father, yet am a carrier of CF (just discovered), what are the chances this child would have CF? My husband is being tested tomorrow but I'm worried as last time I had a child this test was not done. Should I assume this child is fine as my other 2 are?

If your husband is not a carrier the chance is zero. If he is a carrier the chance is 25%.

if your husband is not a carrier there is still a chance due to what they call a spontaneous mutation but it is very rare from what I understand less than 0.5%.

Find out what screenign your husband is getting as if it is not a full screening for the over 1500 mutations and just does the basic 36-68 then there is still about 1% chance he is a carrier. Which again would be about 0.5% chance.

My math may be a little off here but that is the jyst of it.
