I also was scared when I had Rhianna done, so I feel for you. She was almost 2 and weighed 7lbs when I had her done. But, having the pre-op blood work come back fine will put your mind at rest. It is a scary thing to think of our babies going under anesthesia.
The surgery went without any complications and she came home that very same day, although very groggy and "stoned" she did bounce back relatively quickly. She had inside sutures (you can't even see a scar at all) and we just had to keep her comfy and not jumping off/on couches.
Doctors do this very routinely. How much does your baby weigh? How old is she? Try not to worry, really. If you aren't comfy with the decision this month, then think about it more, ask your doctor a lot of questions and definitely do a pre-op blood work.
