It IS safe to be pregnant and have fibroids, but your OB/GYN should be made aware of them to monitor their progress and potential impact on your pregnancy.
There is a relatively safe procedure called embolization, where small synthetic stoppers are inserted into the blood vessels of the fibroid thereby robbing it of blood. Without "life support" the fibroid shrinks. It is a very easy surgery, considered minimally invasive and is being used a LOT these days in lieu of hysterectomy or fibroidectomy which are both major surgeries.
If you’re not yet pregnant, talk to your doctor about embolization; it can be the best thing you’ll ever do for yourself.
