Hi Kim,

Just out of plain curiosity -- are you ER/PR positive? I assume you're also her+ as well, right?

Wonderful about having a healthy baby!

Had infertility problems prior to cancer dx, now family planning is sort of on the 'back burner' for me. I was 35 at dx, now 36.

Hugs :-)

Hi,
Read the articles and do some research and then discuss the pros & cons with your onc and ob/gyn. Just make sure you have all the facts and that you're prepared to take on the responsibility of an infant while under treatment. The pregnancy may be successful, but taking care on a baby/toddler can be exhausting.
Lots of prayers to help you with this life altering decision.
