Ovary/cyst removal while 3 months pregnant??

I'm 3 months pregnant. I've had an 8cm cyst on my left ovary that my doctor's have been monitoring. I went to a specialist yesterday, and it's now 10cm. They are wanting to remove the cyst and the ovary within the next week and a half. They said they will have to cut from belly button down which is right where the baby is at. I'm a NERVOUS WRECK! I am going to have a specialist do it, but was curious has anyone had this happen or know anything about this?? Will the baby be ok? Especially with them opening my stomach completely up and being put under anesthesia? And removing my ovary...is this a major surgery-I'm literally scared to death and would like any advice anyone can give from experiences or knowledge. Thank you soo much!

Calm down, they are not going to cut into your uterus where the baby is, remember they are going to cut from belly button down into your skin and go to the ovaries, not the uterus, about the anesthesia, it sounds like they want to take care of this cyst before it causes you and or the baby more harm, meaning it could grow and turn into cancer or something like that, and infect you and the baby. Dont worry, I know it is hard not to, but ask your doctor how this will effect the baby, and what are the risks if you do not have it done.
Reply:I pray that it will go well. Ive never experienced this situation.
Reply:don't worry everything is going to be ok!! my sister had a tumor in a ovary and she was 8 months pregnant.. they cut her from the belly button to remove it.. don't stress it your going to be ok good luck!!
