Glad to hear you're going well ( apart from that fall on the stairs !!!! naughty girl, stay away from stairs they're evil ! he he he ). You know when you said you're hardly showing at the moment, well, when I was 3 months pregnant my belly was the size of a 6 month pregnancy because of the IVF drugs and the massive fibroid. At work, I didn't want people to find out until I had my 12 week scan, but they suspected I was pregnant and the rumours were flying high. It was awful to dodge them.
I suspect your SIL kept having miscarriages because if she had that many small fibroids they probably prevented the embyos from sticking properly in the wall. I have read and heard of so many women with fibroids ( some of the fibroids a decent size ! ) that have successfuly gone on to get pregnant and carry to full term. In some cases the 3 to 5 cm fibroids just disappeared with the pregnancy progressing ! How's that ! Didn't happen to me though, my fibroid just went crazy. I know if my doctor thought it was going to behave like it did, he would have removed it ( while it was still a respecable size of about 8 x 7 cm - now it's 11 x 11 cm ) before I attempeted to get pregnant. The fibroid's blood supply got cut off and is now dead, around the time Joshua was born, so I guess that was his mission here on earth, becuase had he not been in my belly, the fibroid would have been growing still.
I'm sorry to hear about your friends splitting up. I think the best thing you can do is just be there for your friend as she'll probably need a shoulder to cry on. It is a shame you didn't have that support when you lost Beiron, that's why we surround ourselves with our closest friends, counting on them to be there if tragedy stikes.
Sending you big hugs and good luck in your next scan ! Go little Kebab !
