Natural Conception

Pregnancy, particularly when unexpected or unplanned can feel exciting but scary. Very real fears around having a child with CF can be an additional stress at a time when the expectations are that you will feel happy, grateful and excited.

Early motherhood is a huge time of transition, and a sense of uncertainty can feel overwhelming. With better information and communication some of these fears can be reduced. Listening well and acknowledging people’s concerns and anxieties is key.
