Jen, Congratulations on your pregnancy! Your baby is a blessing no
matter what genetic makeup it has. I concur with the previous
answers to your message. Don't stress about your husband being a
carrier. Even if you both are, there's only a 1 in 4 chance your
baby would even have it. Our daughter, age 9, takes horse back
riding lessons, has a fish and cat indoors and a dog outdoors. She
has asthma with her CF, but doesn't seem to have allergies to the
pets. If anything, they give her joy and comfort when she is feeling
down. I'm the one who has breathing problems due to the cat, but Zoe
pours out her heart and soul to that animal; so in our home it
stays.
Laurel
