I’ve been told I have fibroids which have grown but they measure very small at the moment. I am worried about my next pregnancy as I know fibroids grow and I don’t want the fibroids to cause complications with my next baby. I feel like my intuition is telling me to heal first get back into things then try for another sooner. I’m so worried that by waiting longer for baby no.2 I increase the chances of my fibroids growing… any advice ?

I totally get your worries. I have a large fibroid myself, and luckily conceiving baby number 2 wasn’t an issue for me at all. It really depends on the size and especially the location of the fibroid, so speaking to a specialist is the best step.
For me, I do get mild pains sometimes, but scans always reassure me the fibroid isn’t affecting the baby. Because of the fibroid, I was booked for extra scans to keep everything in check, and that’s usually what happens.
Try not to stress too much. Just take care of yourself and get the right medical advice peculiar to your situation.
Thank you so much that’s really insightful and congratulations on your baby! X

Thanks very much.
