9 months ago I gave birth to my baby boy, after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 at 28years old. I had no children and was told by my oncologist I shouldn't have any as my cancer was hormone receptive. But I took tamoxifen for 3 years (I was on a 5 year trial) and waited 3 months for period to return, then got pregnant naturally straight away! I breastfeed him for 6 months with one boob and then went back on tamoxifen. I know how difficult it is going against doctors advice. I researched a LOT about risks etc, but in the end it was all just statistics. So I followed my gut instinct and just went for it. Best decision I ever made xo.
