This is something that should have been discussed with you in full by your doc since your of child bearing age. Do you have a regular ob/gyn. If ya read the info on the internet (which we are told we shouldnt always) its a 50/50. But only your Doctors will know for sure what the chances of having a healthy, happy baby will be. I am so happy you already have a healthy happy baby but I do understand the question.
Good luck hun and GOD bless.

hey Brigette,
you have asked the most wonderful question - it is so nice to see a question that involves the business of living so fully!!! you need to ask your oncologist this question. I hope the answer is "yes"
hugs

I know a bit about this, but, please, I am not a board-certified oncologist or ob/gyn.
I have been made to understand that the elevated hormones of pregnancy can act as "tumor fertilizer"--ergo, some women have had lung occurences that seem to assert themselves during pregnancy as well some women have moles (on the skin) which have evolved malignantly during pregnancy.
Obviously, cancer and its etiology (sorry, cause/origins) are multi-factorial. For now, I would focus on shoring up your own health; pregnancy, in the best of all possible circumstances, can take a lot of one.
And continued good health--the most important thing.
Best,
Danna
