This is not definitively known about the illness of her child, but still possible.

Sickle cell anemia is a "recessive. All the genes in the body has two copies. To truly is a disease that must have two defective copies.

Cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the gene for hemoglobin (the protein that transports oxygen in the blood) were originally a form of "sickle" when oxygen is low. This blocks the blood vessels and leads to problems with the disease.

They have "sickle cell anemia train" when what you really mean that one of their copies of the defective gene. However, other functions that are normally and enough normal hemoglobin, you do not have symptoms for many years. The same goes for her friend.

Whenfeed the baby will be randomly one of the two genes and one of two genes from her boyfriend. Because it is 50/50, we are, there is a probability of 50%, then the child has sickle cell anemia gene from each will receive from you.

You get the total probability increases, so that about 25% of children sickle cell anemia, Full Blown, 50% chance he / she has said sickle cell anemia train and 25%, it would be quite normal in this gene.

These are simple Mendelian genetics, if you want to know more about them OT. If you have further questions about seeking help, is a geneticist. They are for information, advice available before children better informed about the possibilities that no illness in the family.

PS - this is the wrong forum for these dDisease, sickle cell anemia is not contagious.

Sickle cell anemia is a painful inherited genetic disorder of red blood cells to deform in shape. If so, can damage the pain or a number of other serious complications such as anemia, stroke, a potentially deadly infection, or organ.

Red blood cells carry oxygen to vital organs and members. These cells are normally disc-shaped. In people with sickle cell anemia, a large number of red blood cells to be false or a sickle.

Hemoglobin, a protein found in all red blood cells, is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to the tissues in the body. However, in people with sickle cell anemia, a sickle-shaped red blood cells developed by the presence of an abnormal hemeGlobin called hemoglobin S. Normally, white blood cells contain hemoglobin A. But with hemoglobin S, there is a reduction in the amount of oxygen in red blood cells by an abnormal place in the structure of the amino acid composition of proteins carried out the hemoglobin. After changing consumption of oxygen, the cells their shape.

Not necessarily, but I would like to speak with a specialist. Then decide.
