Did anyone have fibroids while pregnant?

I just found out i have one and its sitting on top of my uterus. Apparently its not harmful to the baby but it will grow.

I did! Mine was in the same place and did not effect the growth of the baby. I did, however, have many problems. If you want info just FM me!!!!!

I did large ones too and had a healthy baby girl however i had started contracting when I hit 24wks and they think that my fibroids might have caused that. My contractions never led to labor until I hit 39wks so while it was nerve wracking everything turned out fine.

I have 2 and I'm on my 2nd pg. They had no effect on my son although they got really big for my 1st pg. But this time around they aren't growing as much. Apparently, they take in so much blood the first time around that they kind of kill themselves.

I had one. My doc said that it is pretty common for them to grow during pregnancy. It did not have any effect on my DD or on me. At my 6 week check-up the doctor said he could not even feel it anymore. He said it is nothing to worry about.
