Urethral stent removal

Synthia
Just curious if anyone has removed a urethral stent at home. I am 24w 5d pregnant and had a stent placed due to a kidney stone. There is a string attached and doctor told me I could pull string and remove it but I am very nervous and anxious about pain and what to expect. Was wondering if anyone has ever pulled out their own stent?
