Hello dear. I have gone through your case. In your case protocol FAC chemo will be safe or taxane chemo. prognosis is good in your case and there will be no harm to fetus. But chemo should not be given after 35 weeks of pregnancy or within 3 weeks of planned delivery. So ask your doctor for proper timing so that he can plan chemo schedule in discussion with you. thanks
