Is it possible to have a baby while going through Chemo?
I would say yes to that. I would talk with your doctor about your concerns. He would be the best source of information regarding whether or not your situation could result in pregnancy, possible birth defects, etc.

yes, a few years back when i liked oprah, she had a guest on her show that carried a child full term while undergoing chemo for some type of cancer. she said it was tough but she made it.

I wouldn't advise it! The chemicals from the chemotherapy will cause serious birth defects in the unborn baby. Raising a normal baby is hard enough as it is let alone raising a special needs child.
Either have the baby first and start chemo or get cleared of cancer and then start your family.

It is possible. However, the radiation can be very harmful to the baby. Discuss with your oncologist what the best course of action is for you personally.

I'm sure it's possible, but it's not advisable. The chemicals in chemo can do serious damage to a fetus so it would be best to wait until you've finished treatment and then discuss exactly how long you should wait with your doctor.
Good luck!

You can receive chemo during the 2nd & 3th trimesters, doctors weigh the risk of not treating the cancer against the slight risk of the drugs passing through the placenta. It is not recommended to plan a pregnancy during cancer treatments, get the cancer under control first. I'm 7 months along with a perfectly healthy girl, diagnosed 2 months ago and only one chemo left!

Most doctors would advise against it,because the chemicals can harm the fetus.
