My younger brother has just had a malignant melanoma removed and being a worrier (and moley!) I am off to see a dermatologist to look at some of mine in a few weeks. I have a 2 year old DS and was about to start ttc no2. We're waiting now until my moles have been checked butI wondered if they do find I have one, assuming its found at an early stage and removed, is there any medical reason why we couldn't ttc? I know I'm jumping the gun here but I'm 31 this year and don't want to leave ttc for to long, but obviously don't want to risk a potential babies health, or my health, and then the worrier in me is now starting to think if I have an increased risk of cancer should I be trying for another child if there is a possibility I might not be around to see him/her grow up? Would really aprreciate anyones thoughts/info around this
