Can a woman with uterine fibroid have a normal full-term baby?

Fibroids: Uterine fibroids don't always cause problems during a pregnancy. It depends upon how many fibroids there are, where they are, and how large the fibroids are. A term delivery is certainly possible, but large uterine fibroids can increase the risk of premature delivery.

Certainly!: Most women with fibroid uteri deliver normal term babies - although they are at increased risk for preterm birth, malpresentation, cesarean section, placenta accreta and postpartum hemorrhage.
