Timpf, 36, wrote movingly and in detail about her medical situation on X. She titled it, "An Unconventional Birth Announcement."

Now, before you worry, my doctor says it's Stage 0 and is confident that it almost certainly hasn't spread...I woke up more-than-a-week-past-due pregnant, completely consumed by doing everything I could to get the baby out. By the middle of the afternoon, I was waddling around from appointment to appointment, talking about how to get my cancer out."
