Rihanna Truman from New Zealand has a rare form of cancer , which makes the risks associated with child birth unclear, according to Newshub.
"He's growing like a normal baby except he's a bit small, but that's normal for my health so they're not worried at all," Ms Truman told the news site.
Ms Truman discovered she had bone cancer at the age of 12 and despite surgery and treatment, her cancer was untreatable.
According to Newshub, when Ms Truman's family heard about her pregnancy earlier this year they advised her to abort or adopt the baby in order to focus on her treatment.
"If I die, I'm going to be happy. Because for me, I have lived my life and my son will hopefully be grateful that I chose to have him."
