Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 I have a two year old daughter with cf as well as a baby boy due in August. I am currently 31 weeks pregnant and the ultrasounds are showing blockage, calcifications and areas of large swelling in the intestines so we are obviously suspecting cf. The perinatal doctor who is doing routine ultrasounds is concerned about possible rupture of the intestines in-utero. She says even if they do rupture before delivery date they will not deliver since the main goal is to have the lungs well formed. It is difficult for us in that this doctor is not communicating with my daughter's cf doctors. I am the one calling around trying to figure out what all of this means and what should be done,if anything. Is there anyone else who has gone through similar circumstances with bowel obstruction/rupturing before birth? Sharon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
