Is it possible to not have problems when pregnant with fibroid/s?

From all the stories I've seen shared fibroids seem to be problematic during pregnancy, in example:

* they may grow
* they may outgrow their blood supply and cause pain
* they could restrict the baby's growth
* they (in rare cases) could cause deformity in the baby (pressure on developing bones)
* they could increase problems with bladder, kidneys
* they could outcompete the baby for the blood supply and cause miscarriage (or otherwise cause a miscarriage)

Surely there are people who have had other experiences such as fibroid reduction, no growth, no complications...and lived happily ever after. Anyone got a story to share?
