# Possible reasons not to be tested:

• If CF does not seem like a serious disorder to you
• If the chances of being a CF carrier seems low to you; this may be especially likely if you are Asian American or African American
• If you and the baby’s father would never consider having amniocentesis or CVS-to help decide about terminating the pregnancy or preparing for the birth of a baby with CF-even if you were both found to be carriers
• Because the test is not perfect and will not identify all carriers
• Because the cost of testing is not covered by your insurance company
