Breast lump terrified

I suffer health anxiety first of all and attended the breast clinic in December due to a lump which turned out to be nodularity. I then found out i was pregnant in May and was over the moon but that was cut short as i felt another lump. I seem my gp who said she thought it was jst nodularity or something to do with being pregnant so go back in 4 weeks which i did. I seen her last week and she said shes sure its nodularity but will send me to the breast clinic but just a routine referral. I am assuming this is a good thing? She would surely send me urgently especially being pregnant am i right? Im really scared as im pregnant and have a 3 year old to look after

It sounds like the GP is not too concerned and is refering just to double check. I've got a breast lump (which has now been diagnosed as an infection) and my GP was very concerned due to how the lump felt (very hard and non mobile) I had an urgent referal and thankfully it's not cancer. I think if your GP was at all concerned they would have rushed your referal through too.
