Surgery while pregnant with Anesthesia?

Just wondering if any one else has experience with going under for emergency surgery (general anesthesia)? My appendix was about to rupture when I was 8 weeks pregnant (i'm 17 weeks this week) and so it had to come out. I shudder to think about the drugs, antibiotics (both were class B and supposedly safe for pregnant women, but the more googling I do on them, the more freaked out I get) and pain killers they gave me.

Anyway, I've done searching and came up with several others who have had surgery while pregnant, but very little come back to update on how their LO's are doing. Would love some advice for those that have been through this or know someone who has??

Thanks!
