    My sister had an ovavian cyst removed when she was pregnant. She was much earlier than you are now though, but she was 10 weeks at the time. Just before Xmas she delivered a perfectly healthy, 11lb bubba.

    Thank you for sharing a success story! That's what I need to hear!!

    Do you know if they were concerned at the time about operating at 10 weeks? I've heard that it's very dangerous in the first trimester?

    They weren't concerned at all for the pregnancy as apparently it is a fairly common operation that is performed during pregnancy. Like you, they were more concerned with my sister and getting the cyst out. My sisters was twisted and very painful. She stayed in hospital for a few days and was a bit tender for about a week but fine in the end.
