I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 27..Im now 29 and finished my chemo treatments a year and a month ago! Im trying to conceive my second baby and i do nothing but worry about everything. I just hope that the chemo hasn't damaged too many of my eggs...Oh and i am not putting myself at risk for reoccuance by ttc. I had what they call triple negative breast cancer which means there were zero hormones involved and getting pregnant wouldn't cause another tumor to form...Id never put my daughter at risk of not having a mommy around! Anyone in the same boat?!
Ps..Im not posting this to get sympathy. People think sometimes when you bring it up that thats what youre looking fori think? ..Never been the type to want people to feel sorry for me..thanks ladies!
I just wanted to say good luck and I hope that TTC goes smoothly for you - it can be a little bit crazy-making at first! I know it is impossible not to worry about what-ifs, but it sounds like you have done some research. Good luck & welcome!
