I had an abortion when I was 19. My hubby and I had one scare, before we found out that I'm infertile... We decided then that if I was pregnant, I'd have an abortion (we were NOT ready for kids at the time). Now that we've decided that we're CF, and that 90% of our CFness is because I will never have a child who shares my genetics, if for some reason I did get pregnant now, I'd have an abortion now, too.

To the OP.... Brace yourself for a fight when you go to the OB/Gyn.... They do NOT like to do sterilizations on CF women, especially young ones. To quote a girl on one of my other CF boards, when her doctor tried to give her grief about giving her a tubal... "Nothing's coming out of my uterus alive!" Sometimes the shock method is effective in making a doctor see that you're totally committed to not ever having children.

You tell me that I sin.
You say I'm bound for hell.
So once your judgment condemns you
I SHALL SEE YOU THERE.
