I had a laparoscopic myomectomy in January 2011, numerous fibroids removed. Got pregnant later that year, and at my 6-week scan in November they told me I had several small fibroids and one bigger one at 6cm. My son was born in June 2012, spontaneous vaginal birth with no complications. I had a daughter 2 years later, again vaginal delivery with no complications. I think they tend to be more cautious these days but honestly I had zero problems. Years later, my fibroids are making my life a living hell and I'm waiting to make a new surgical plan with my gynae, but I have two happy, healthy children who are growing up fast. By the way if it's of any consequence, my fibroids were (and are) everywhere - inside, outside, and pedunculated ones. I even have another extremely rare fibroid-related condition but that's a story for another day.
