I'm a bit late to this post, but I am currently researching this topic. I am 22 years old. At the age of 20, the Easter before my 21st birthday (in Oct), I was diagnosed with stage 3A. Shortly after my 21st birthday, I found out I was pregnant – very unplanned. But I was going to embrace the blessing God bestowed upon me. So fast forward to now, my baby is 4 months old. After delivery, we sent my placenta to the lab to check for any traces of the disease. All was well. On Friday, 3 days from now, I will have my first full body scans since before I was pregnant. Nervous but hopeful. I'll share the results this weekend; hopefully it will encourage others to not let cancer dictate the rest of their lives.

Hey, just want to clarify.. you were told that getting pregnant could lead to a recurrence? I was 3a at diagnosis, two nodes showed microscopic amounts.. complete dissection of, I want to say 26 nodes that came back clear. My primary was 11 mm thick. I did a clinical trial for treatment. At my last treatment I found i was pregnant. I had my babygirl in June and she and my placenta both appear healthy. I have my first full body scan since treatment at the end of the month. No one told me that pregnancy could spark a recurrence, so now I'm a bit nervous.
