I have three children. My oldest son was born with CAH. I then became preg. with my daughter. I took dex. I gained 100 pounds. i was sick and miserable the whole time. She does not have cah, but the next time i had a baby my other son I did not take the treatment. He was born with cah but didn’t have any other problems because I didn’t have the treatment. They knew he was going to have cah so they were prepard. It is just my opinion but if I had to do it all over again I would never take dex again. GOOD LUCK!!
