Fibroids and Pregnancy

From http://www.fibroidsla.com/

There are many sites out on the web claiming you can have a healthy pregnancy with your fibroids; that mjay be true for some or if you're lucky like me, that is not the case at all. 
I was talking to my mother last week and she informed me my sister had been in the hospital due to fibroids.  Hers are worse then mine though - she had to be given 2 pints of blood.  My mother had to have her fibroids removed.  It was the size of a large orange and her uterus was a casualty of that fibroid.  Then my good friend from work just told me recently she had a partial hysterectomy due to her fibroids.  Am I missing something??  Three out of the 5 women I had interactions with had fibroids not including me!
