'Miracle' baby born between chemotherapy and menopause
Sarah, from Merseyside, was trying for another baby when doctors told her she had breast cancer.
Given only a 1% chance of conceiving, she became pregnant with baby Monty shortly after her treatment.
According to Cancer Research UK, doctors normally advise women to wait two years before becoming pregnant, due to the risks of secondary cancer. Sarah was closely monitored throughout the pregnancy because of this.
"The timing couldn't have been any more perfect: two months after Monty was born, I started menopause," she said.
