Krikit - you're the first person that's spoken about having them removed so thanks for letting us know how it all happened. If I was sure that I wasn't going to have another baby, then I'd probably leave them alone, but we haven't ruled out another yet.

Lushkamarx - I was so pleased when I did have a natural birth with all the obstacles thrown at me - have a small pelvis too and they were expecting DD to be a big baby. I wanted to stand up and start singing "I am woman"! The fibroids I have are in the wall of my uterus, which was why my ob thought it was difficult for embryos to latch on. I had bleeding in the early days of DD's pregnancy, so I thought I was going to lose her too, but she was an exceptionally sticky baby!
