Chanches of X linked itchyosis to KID

[shefalibv]

My husband has X linked itchyosis from birth. Apart from this he has no other ailment.
I have a normal skin and no ailment.

So what are chanches of our kid having/not having x linked itchyosis?

If I read the genetic informations on net then males have XY chromosome and females have XX.
So If I have a boy then he should not have X linked itchyosis and if I have a girl then she should be carries of x linked itchyosis.
Is this correct?

Is there any way to ensure the fathers x linked disease does not get passed to kid?
