Jen,
Consider this...you mention your baby daughter...you know that you
have to remain well and take care of her...so do please go and have your mammo, it is really important for women to catch this disease in the early stagers and this is possible with regular mammo's. I had my yrly mammo
in Sept. 2004...only five months later I felt an ache deep in my arm and
called my dr. and insisted on another mammo. went in and well the story is below...caught it early...look what happened in my case in just 5months.

The ladies that have responded to you have given you very wise advice...please do take it.
Good Luck.
Jean
