      I was diagnosed with stage 1a melanoma, breslow thickness 0.44mm, in July 2016 after going through the initial stages of IVF (retrieval).
      I had a wle without slnb and waited a year to begin trying to have a baby again.
      I now have a happy, healthy 3 month old baby boy and no signs of melanoma (other than a nasty scar). When I was looking for information on pregnancy and/or IVF and melanoma it was really hard to find anyone who had been through it. So, I just wanted to put myself out there in case anyone else is in this situation and looking for encouragement/ information. Feel free to PM me if so 🙂
