Currently expecting a possibly intersex baby

Hello! I have salt wasting CAH. There's alot of advice in this thread but If your child has CAH one of the most important things you'll need to do is find a knowledgeable pediatric endocrinologist as it is a life long condition. Your child will be unable to produce enough cortisol or aldosterone but it's managed through medication. I had to get blood work every few months, which was tough. I realized I was different from my peers pretty early in life because of the meds and appointments. I recommend that you keep doing what you're doing be open, and encourage conversation.

Good luck with everything-theyll have their ups and downs like every other kid but it sounds like you're setting them up for success.

PS can you and your husband be tested to see if youre carriers? CAH is genetic so both of you will need to have a certain gene.
