We got 'roids

[Eoz]

Aww Dinks hunny that is good news.Not long now xxx

 

[lauren10]

So just had my scan and the tech couldn't/didn't tell me much, but she did say the measurements were pretty much the same as the last u/s at 12 weeks. And it's still only on the outside of the uterus. So far so good! Hope to hear more from the doc the next visit.

oh and she's a girl!

 

[Eoz]

Congrats on your pink bundle!! Does sound good news for you xxxxxxxx

 

[lauren10]

Thanks! My husband keeps saying..."ok...so how many times do you need to hear that the fibroid isn't a problem before you stop worrying about it." um....a LOT!

 

[Eoz]

Ha ha! I am a right worrier as I'm getting a lot of pain of late and OH keeps saying will you stop bloody worrying! Duh easier said than done!

 

[Lane_Meyer]

Congratulations Lauren!!!

 

[RHR]

Congrats Lauren on your little pink bundle ans that your roid isn't a problem either. I know I'll go into stress mode nearer the time for my last scan and they're able to tell me either way what's happening.

 

[lauren10]

Thank you! They're going to give me one more scan at 32 weeks just to check where the roid/baby is at. When is your last scan RHR?

 

[RHR]

My last scan is booked for when I'm 34 weeks. I'm so pleased for you Lauren. it's really great news that everything is fine for you both.

Congrats on your baby girl Lauren!!!!!!

 

[Eoz]

Well I am having a ickle boy!!!!!!!!

Bit of bad news the roid has grown and its now made baby breech and he wouldn't turn at all so have to go back in 2 weeks.My cyst has multiplied which is a concern so back in 6 weeks for a scan on that.I am over the moon as I have 3 girls one boy so it's balanced it nicely.Poor bugger is really trapped in there.will upload pics later x

I had another scan, Im 10 weeks now. The doctor said the fibroid hasnt grown and she thinks the baby will be ok and that the fibroid wont win the fight over the blood supply!
Still very anxious about it all, makes me feel sqeamish just thinking about the fibroid, I wish it wasnt there!

 

[lauren10]

Eoz congrats on having a boy!!! Sorry about the roid growth But it sounds like they're keeping a very close eye on you. Lucky I feel the same but I'm trying to forget about it as much as possible!

 

[lauren10]

Ok girls, are you guys ready for this?...As promised, I present you with, the ROID. Gross, I know. Luckily when I'm standing everything rounds out so you can't see it.

 

[Eoz]

Wow Lauren!! That is exactly how my tummy looked with my cyst.Bless ya.That really is mad

Well heres my new pics and boy is he squished.The last pic breaks my heart

 

[RHR]

Congrats on your little boy Eoz. Poor thing he does look squished in there. But it's great news that the hospital is monitoring you so closely.

Lauren, your roid does look uncomfortable. poor you. Fingers crossed it doesn't get any bigger and cause your lo any problems.

 

[lauren10]

Oh your poor little boy...that breaks my heart too Did they tell you if his measurements are all right on? I'm wondering if it looks worse than it really is for him. I mean, every baby gets squished towards the end anyway. As long as your uterus keeps expanding with it and he keeps growing as he should...he would be fine, right?

xxxxx

 

[Eoz]

Well i hope! he is a week smaller than dates now.they couldn't get his legs and spine hence going back again.His head is ok as is his tummy.My uterus will expand but so will the roid so god knows what will happen in the next few weeks.It has already grown 1and a half cm in 2 weeks xx

 

[lauren10]

Our bodies are quite amazing, and I'm sure yours will find a way to keep bubs safe! Does his being a week small concern them? It doesn't sound like he's that far off at all.

Still, I don't get why so many women have fibroids...there must be something more to it. I'll have to do some reasearch.

I have to go back today for more pictures as well...they couldn't get clear shots of her heart because of her position. It's always great taking anothing look!

 

[Eoz]

I don't think his size is a huge concern at the moment.Maybe if he doesn't catch up then i guess they will look in to it more.

Aww more pics and peeks are fab and it aslo helps to confirm the sex over and over!

I have Endometriosis for 14/15 yrs now and struggled with cysts and miscarriages but never fibroids.4 babys as well and never ever had one.Most odd.My neighbour is 47 yrs old and she has been unwell for weeks and has taken 4 weeks off work now.They discovered she has a fibroid and her womb is that of a 12 week preggy lady! I think they do need to do lot's more research x
