Hi @Emma1113
Glad to hear you have a good support network and also now a new community in the Online Network. I hope you don't mind me sharing additional BCNA and external resources that may be helpful during this time.
BCNA’s My Journey is a great tool to start with and is accessible online. This resource provides high quality, evidence-based information which can be tailored to your diagnosis and provides insights from others with breast cancer (It also has a symptom tracker).
I have handpicked some articles you might find useful:
Diagnosed with early breast cancer during pregnancy
Support for you when diagnosed with early breast cancer
Stories and Podcasts
I wanted to share stories of women in our BCNA community who have also had breast cancer during their pregnancy. We hope you find these stories helpful , however we also recommend that listeners exercises self-care when listening, as some may find the content upsetting.
