See a fertility spec: I'd recommend seeing a fertility specialist. You may not be able to conceive normally (although she may have tricks i don't know about), but modern conception techniques can be very helpful. Of course, keep your CF center in the loop, as you'll need help quite a bit when you are pregnant. Use online forums to talk to other women with CF who have had children, so you know what is coming. Luck!

See fertility doctor: Please see a fertility specialist without delay. I've treated quite a few women with cf, generally outcomes are good.
