Cystic Fibrosis Student Project -- Please Help

I am a 10th grade Biology student in southern Mississippi. We are doing couples projects on genetics. In my scenario, I am separated from my husband. We have a $35,000 income, and insurance coverage through his employer. I have a three year old child with cystic fibrosis, and am three months pregnant. We are referred to a genetic counselor for our baby on the way.

My questions are this: What do we do about the baby on the way if it may have cystic fibrosis? And what may a daily schedule for the toddler with CF be like?

Any help is appreciated. Either post back on this discussion board or email me please!!! Thanks so much!
