The news of a pregnancy or a recent birth is an exciting time for all prospective and existing parents. It can, however, be cruelly interrupted by the news of a cancer diagnosis and the worry that this brings to both you and your wider family.
Mummy’s Star has been set up specifically to offer support if you find yourself in this situation and we hope that by providing comprehensive information and links in this section, it will help you to get the support you need, access services that are available to you but most importantly know that you are not alone when you are going through this.
The information contained here is reviewed on an ongoing basis and will also be added to as new information becomes known about cancer in pregnancy. Likewise, as we receive more enquiries, we will add to the FAQs section in order to be able to try and answer as many of your questions in one place as possible.
Please contact us here and we can discuss more specifically how we can support you and your family.

Magic Numbers for
Mother's Day!
To celebrate Mother's Day, and all our magic Star Mums, we are running a series of grid raffles over the month of March.
Each grid contains 100 numbers. When the grid goes live you can buy as many numbers as you like. Each number can only be bought once. We will update the grid throughout the day/week till all the numbers are sold. Then we will draw the Magic Number... the 'owner' of that number wins a prize!
This video explains the whole process in less than 2 minutes!
And this is the event page, where the first grid will go live on Monday 7th March at 10am!
