Hi all!
I am at 7+5 on my second pregnancy (unplanned, oops, but that's another story...!) and anyway similarly to during my 1st pregnancy at about 6 weeks I went to have a private early viability scan done.
For a good few months prior to this pregnancy I had been feeling as if there was something to the left of my bellybutton just under my ribs, never had it checked out though as I concluded it must just be an aftereffect from my 1st pregnancy.
So when l was at the scan I asked whether they could see any cysts or anything, and the nurse said that actually yes, on my left ovary she could see a 4cm cyst! I was quite surprised. I have had no prior knowledge of ever having had a cyst.
Talking to the scan technician about it she said its perfectly normal to see and that I fact they rarely saw women without some kind of cyst on/around their reproductive organs.
I asked her whether it was dangerous, would it get in the way of the pregnancy/harm the baby and she said normally as baby gets bigger cysts tend to shrink down, and that if they don't they can just be surgically aspirated.
I'm not particularly worried, just wondering if anyone has been through anything similar and could shed some light
