Is she already pregnant? If not, I would advise against her getting pregnant since she is a carrier of the genetic disease. Any male offspring would certainly have it, and the females would be at risk. As you probably know, Crohn's is a horrible disease. I wouldn't procreate if I knew my children had a chance of getting it.
