I found out with my first pregnancy that I had fibroids. I think I was about 12 wks when I was feeling lots of pelvic pain. I was out of work for about 2 wks. Then the pain finally went away. They found about four fibroids: two inside the uterus, one on top of the uterus and one towards the bottom. Then on a Friday when I was 21 wks, we went to get an ultrasound to find out that I was have a baby boy!! We were so happy. Everything looked fine and normal except for the stupid fibroids. Then Sunday came around and that was the saddest day of our lives. I lost my son. I gave birth to him and got to hold him. I was in shock. It’s still hard and I blame those dam fibroids because I was feeling the same pressure that I felt before. Therefore, I didn’t know if it was something else that was more serious. Well I finally had another u/s to see the size and how many. I had still four, but one was very big in the uterus and this could have been the reason why I lost my son. The fibroid and my son were fighting for room and I couldn’t do a thing about to protect him. I decided to get surgery to take them suckers out. They found eight of them inside! I was surprise. I had to wait 2 months to try to have a baby. This happened about 7 months ago and now I’m 10 wks pregnant! I’m excited, but very very scared. My husband said any sign of anything he’s going to take me to the ER. I just pray to God that I can carry to term and have a healthy baby. I’m also hoping that God sends me twins (to me it’s kind of getting my son back to me.) I miss him a lot. I feel empty sometimes, but I have to look forward to the future with my pregnancy now. Tomorrow I go in for an ultrasound, wish me good luck.
