Carolinee:
So I don't know where to begin.
I knew I had a fibroid before now and the doctors kept saying it's small, it will have no negative effects on me.
Married for a year and 9 months now and this is my first pregnancy.
Now in excruciating pain.
Scan says fibroid is compressing my baby...i should just be praying for my baby's safety.
Don't know what to do.

Experienced mothers, doctors pls help.
Can I get a word of encouragement?

My cousin is a doc and her mum is a matron, can give u numbers if u require it, but where are u based?

those doctors saying it was small are stupid. why didn't they recommend to you where it could be treated?
cos I know, fibroids whether small or not shouldn't be left to ignorance, cos as time goes on,it grows bigger. those doctors are stupid.

I pray someone here help u out on this.

Don't listen to anyone or take any herbal supplement, the best that can be done at this stage is watching and waiting. The doctors will give you pain relief if it gets bad and also something to stop premature contractions as needed. For those saying they should've taken the fibroid out before pregnancy, even people with no fibroids before develop them during pregnancy because of hormones and may go through degeneration. Long story short, there's nothing you can do about it but rest, monitor your symptoms and pray. Anything can happen during pregnancy but we only hope for the best. Best of luck.

even for the fact that she had the fibroid before pregnancy, those doctors were being stupid for not attending to it. fibroid, whether small or big, should be attended to cos it grows bigger with time.

and there is no proof that women without fibroid develop it during pregnancy. if possible they do, it could be probable 5 out of 100.

well, u have given her a good advice. I pray it doesn't affect the baby.



stay blessed.
