# Possible reasons to be tested:

• If CF seems like a very serious disorder to you
• If the chance of being a CF carrier seems high to you; this may be especially likely if a member of your family or your partner’s family has CF or is a known carrier.
• If you and the baby’s father would consider amniocentesis or CYS to help you decide about continuing the pregnancy or to help you prepare for the birth of a baby with CF-if you were both found to be carriers.
• Because test results are usually reassuring
• Because the cost of testing is covered by your insurance
