fibroid!

My ultrasound showed a tennis ball size fibroid. I'm kinda nervous about that. Does anyone have any experience with those during pregnancy? Was it painful and did it cause problems with delivery?

Last year I underwent a myomectomy to remove what we thought was a grapefruit size fibroid.  It turned out to be 4 more hiding behind it.  I was told I had a better chance of getting pregnant if I had it removed.  I guess they were right, I'm 5 months pregnant with twins.  So I have no experience with them during pregnancy or delivery but just wanted to let you know what I did and experienced.  SSBD

I have one and it has not been painful or a problem at all.  my dr checked its growth and position a few times to check where it would be at delivery time.  unless you have pain they are usually not a problem.
