I would discuss your concerns with your vet. I haven't had my girls done yet...Sadie is 3yrs old and 6 lbs and I am STILL a nervous wreck to have her done. I know alot of people have had their furbabies spayed/neutered with no problems but, I am with you...I am worried too.
I talked to my vet about how I am so nervous...he told me that after inserting the tube they listen to their heart(with the tube inserted the heart echo's off the tube) it they hear something wrong they won't do the surgery.
Maybe you could ask your vet if he does this..I would ask all the questions of concern that you have,....Don't feel that you are being silly..Have you thought about having her spayed with laser surgery? there is less bleeding, they are under for a shorter time, and quicker healing. It isn't much more than being cut.

layla was not quite 3 lbs when she was spayed and she came through with flying colors... but it is totally normal to be a nervous wreck!!
