# If the test shows that I am a carrier, what should I do?

If the test shows that you are a carrier, the next step is to test the baby’s father. Both parents must be carriers for the baby to be at risk for CF. If the father has a normal test result, the chance that your baby will have CF is very, very small. The remaining risk is because the test is not 100% accurate, as mentioned in the previous section.
