Fibroid When Pregnant
Im 36 weeks pregnant. I have a fibroid in my uterus that's taking up alot of my babys space?
It hurts so bad when she moves around, I guess because she is so cramped. i'm thinking of talking to the doctor about inducing me next week at 37 weeks simply because of how much space the fibroid is taking up. As any other mothers out there ever had this problem during pregnancy?
Cherry,
How big is the fibroid? Have you had an ultrasound done lately to measure it? Obviously it is going to grow when you are pregnant because of the hormones in your body, however unless it is causing the baby problems most likely the doctor wont induce you just because it hurts and ill tell you why. The doctor wants to be sure that your baby's lungs are developed, and grow inside you as much as they can before they will consider induction, unless there is a danger to you or to your baby. In the last 4 weeks of pregnancy is when the baby gains most of his/her weight, they gain about .5 to 1 pound a week. And trust me you do not want your baby on a breathing tube. I have had to scan babies that are premature and they have a breathing tube, you don't want to do that. Im sure your doctor is aware of your fibroid when you got pregnant, and he/she should be having you do routine ultrasounds to see how big the fibroid has gotten, if they aren't you need to tell them too, because yes, depending on where the fibroid is exactly it can cause growth restriction to your baby. Now of course if the doctor decides it is in the best interest to deliver you early they can give you a steroid shot to help develop the lungs of the baby.
