My scan showed a fibroid and doctor said its on the larger side. Im in 2nd trimester and now im worried about the baby. Has anyone here had a big fibroid during pregnancy? How did it go for u?
Having a baby is already like managing a small apartment, and fibroids just want to be uninvited tenants! They can cause some pain, but doctors know exactly how to handle them. Just keep up with your scans and let the doc worry.
I felt so scared when they found a fibroid in my first scan. I cried thinking it would harm my baby, but my gynac reassured me. It didn't cause any issues at all, so please try to stay calm.
Fibroids can sometimes grow due to pregnancy hormones, but their impact depends on the location and size. Your gynecologist will monitor them via regular ultrasounds. It is best to trust your medical team's advice.
Since large fibroids can sometimes cause pain or early contractions, please be very gentle with yourself. Keep your doctor informed about even minor pain. Sending you prayers for a safe pregnancy.
My hospital had an amazing team of specialists who monitored my fibroid closely during scans. Don't hesitate to ask your doctor or the scanning staff all your doubts during the appointment. They will explain the exact size and plan.
Don't panic reading Google, most fibroids are harmless during pregnancy. Yes, they need tracking, but usually they don't interfere with delivery. Just ask your gynac clearly in your next visit.
