Hi Sadie, I have quite a few fibroids and I'm in my 14week of pregnancy. I was really scared when I found out I had fibroids but talking with other people/friends (many of them have children) said that fibroids are very common. I wouldn't worry if I were you, just try to relax and enjoy the pregnancy. Also, all my fibroids are inside the uterus so even though I'm 14 weeks my uterus is 17weeks. My Dr. said the baby is fine and has plenty of room to grow and kick around, even though I can't feel it yet. My Dr. also told me that after the baby is born the fibroids usually shrink and if they're not bothering me I should leave them alone because removing them may leave scarring in the uterus that can cause problems for future pregnancies.
