"Talking about it is always helpful because it removes a lot of the stigma, and it makes you feel like you can ask these questions to your doctor."Timpf was diagnosed with stage 0 ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in February 2025, just 15 hours before giving birth to her first child.She announced the news on social media days later, writing what she called an "unconventional birth announcement.""Last week, I welcomed my first child into the world.
