Yes, I would definitely wait. We have several posters that had heartbreaking mc's due to fibroids. Nickey carried to 18 or 20wks and the fibroids caused her to lose the baby. I wouldn't want to endure that kind of pain. I would heed drs advice for sure. It is great news that you have an excellent prognosis.
Hmmm! I'm not really sure, but I would guess the reason she said that is because of the fibroid. Personally, I would probably wait.
Glad to hear your tube is nice and open, though :-)
