Pregnancy after breast cancer
Congrats to you 😊. As far as I know the only certain way to find out is to have a scan. Best of luck with everything x
Congratulations to you and well done for getting through your tough year!
You could take a clear blue digital which does say weeks on it but it only goes to 3 or 4 weeks but you have to add another 2 weeks on to the results! If it says 3+ it means your 5+ weeks for example, if that’s the case then book an appointment at your GP explain your situation and they will send you for a scan and how to be referred to midwife! All the best xx
You probably should go see your gp to book you in to an early scan and date your pregnancy and refer you to hospital under consultant as you be considered high risk. I would also contactcyour oncology team to discuss this as might need extra surveillance.
Had a quick Google and there seemed to be very few cases of false positives with herceptin (0.05%) in a study.
Hope all turns out well.
Hi
Massive congrats on your pregnancy. I am 44 and 34 weeks pregnant. You will be consultant lead due to your age and get more scans and midwife appointments which is nice as it gives you reassurance everything is progressing nicely. Make an appointment with the midwife asap as they get booked up really quickly. You can do this by contacting your GP and asking for a referral or you should be able to just ask for the midwife contact details and book your self in directly. Good luck and we are here if you need to know anything xx
Thanks for your reply and congrats to you not long to go now hope you had a good pregnancy and hope all goes well for the birth, I saw the doctor yesterday he said I'm about 6 weeks and he referred me to the midwife station and they said I will receive a call from a midwife in a couple days ill keep you Posted thanks
