Cervical polyps anyone?

in Pregnant after 35
I tried posting this in the birth club group and got no response. Maybe us "older" ladies might have some experience? :) 

So we just had our 8 week appointment a couple days ago and we saw the little Peanut and his/her little heart beating. All is well there. Doc noticed a tiny polyp on my cervix which he says explains the pink in the discharge I have been having. He didn't seem worried about it and says that it's completely normal due to the influx of hormones to that area. He's hoping it dissolves on its own. If not, he would consider taking it out. We'll reevaluate at the 12 week appointment. I started reading about it and saw it was more common with a second pregnancy (check) and if you are over 20 years old (double check!). Has anyone experienced this? I'm trying not to freak out . TIA!

    I had one in my third pregnancy.  I had bright red bleeding at 12 weeks and that was the only possible cause they could find.  My doctor put some silver nitrate on it.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

    Funny you mention.  I had an U/S today because of terrible cramping and the tech said it was from a cyst dissolving.  It's not supposed to be harmful during pregnancy.  I'm waiting for them to send the results to my doctor so I can get a better explanation.  

    Try not to freak! :)  I think it's pretty common.
