36 weeks with fibroid tumors-Will I make it to 40 weeks?!


Question:

36 weeks with fibroid tumors-Will I make it to 40 weeks?

My little girl has turned, I found out at the Dr Appt today. I am measuring 51 weeks because of the fibroids but everyone keeps looking at me and saying that I am not going to make it. I am really tired of the negativieyt. What can I do to make her stay in there until July 24th (my due date) and prove everyone wrong.


Answers:

Hi, I have same situation like you! I'm 28 weeks pregnant but my uterus is as big as 36 weeks pregnancy because of many fibroids. I look really big and everyone looks at me surprisingly.
My doctor said I should take the surgery when my baby is 36 weeks pregnant but if I don't have any problem then I may make until my due date, September 15th.
In my case the problem is I had a surgery to remove many fibroids in 2005 and the doctor had to cut some part of the uterus. So my uterus is smaller and weaker because of the surgery. Moreover the fibroids grew again in short time. So I may have to take the surgery to give birth of the baby 1 month before the due date.
If you dont have any problem other then huge tummy you can make it to 40 weeks.
I wish you all the best, wish me luck too.
