ovarian cyst

Has anyone had an ovarian cyst while pregnant in the first trimester? If so, what did it feel like and how did you fix it?

& I had bright bleeding also throughout the first few months , although that part wasn't painful it was before I knew , so it was very scary to pour out blood . So I'd assume it was associated with the cysts

I had one in my pregnancy & it felt like a constant dull & full pain .. I didn't want to eat or drink bc my tummy just felt like it couldn't grow anymore I'd how I'd explain it , just a very very uncomfortable pain feeling . But my Dr said it was alright and normal to occur in pregnancy .

Ooooh!!! I'm 34w and just found out from my third trimester ultrasound that I have a cyst on my left ovary! They didn't notice it before, and they didn't check to see if I had one. So far its only an inch big, and I don't notice any unusual pain from it, but I am still worried if it will affect anything during labor. :(

Ftm I'm 34 weeks now and blessed but I had one on my left ovary so big that kept growing they had to do surgery when I was only 23 weeks pregnant. They removed it along with my left ovary because it was so damaged. They didn't want to because I wasn't far along and could lose the baby from early labor but had to because it could be cancerous and it also could have ruptured from being so big. It was scary but my baby and I are fine and now I can deliver vaginally. I was only in the hospital for a week or so because they had to make sure the baby was doing well. Only thing is I had. To take the pain of getting my stomach cut opened and stapled because of the baby they couldn't give me any strong meds to take away the pain.

Yea I definitely had one in the first trimester, but my doctor told me not to worry and it was perfectly normal to have. The ultrasound tech I had said also don't worry they usually go away on their own and they give off progesterone for the fetus.

Mine is just on one side but its about an inch or slightly larger. You will feel a lot of pulling and stretching though from the muscles that support the uterus so that could be what you're feeling too.

I feel kind of sharp pains on my left and right side, but sometimes more on my left... i heard it could be the uterus stretching too. I'm 8 weeks so I know my uterus has gotten much larger than it was before being pregnant!

Did you have them on both sides or just one?

They found a chat on my ovary with my first ultrasound and checked it again with my second. They said they'd continue to keep an eye on it and most of them are benign.
