Which activities are likely to cause an ovarian cyst to twist or rupture?

I am 13 weeks pregnant with an 8cm ovarian cyst. I hope to avoid surgery during pregnancy, and want to know what I can do to try to lessen my chances of a twisted or ruptured cyst.
I am especially curious about women who have had complications? What were you doing when the cyst twisted or ruptured?

Bending could possibly affect a cyst such as by rupture (an example only) depending on how much bending you do. A fall could also possibly affect a cyst (another example only).

I would recommend checking with your OB/GYN as well when you go in for your next check-up to see what they say.

In the mean time here’s the link to a site that might help you find even more information. The link is at: http://forums.obgyn.net/pregnancy-birth
