Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

So...my bleeding was that the placenta moved & it is now in front of the Cervix (Placenta Previa). Doctor said that since it is early, 14 weeks, most likely by the time I give birth the placenta will be where it should be. Anyone have this early on?

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Had it early on, and now at 28 weeks I have frequent sonos because it still hasn't moved enough. It needs to move another 2cm for me to deliver naturally, and it has made progress since week 14, but not that much so far. Apparently it does mpve for many people; we'll see if mine moves enough to deliver naturally...

I had it with my first pregnancy. The placenta wasn't completely covering my cervix, but it was what they considered to be "low-lying". It moved up by 20-something weeks.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I have it now also, I am 13 weeks with twins. They told me today at the dr that it should move on its own. I keep taking their word on it!!!

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I had partial previa at my 16 week sono. By 20 weeks it had moved.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Ok...so I see it is very common!!! I guess @ the worst, if it doesn't move, they do a Csection...I am fine w/ that as long as the baby is good, ya know!

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I had it at 14wks. It caused some scary spotting. It hadn't budged at my 16wk sono.....then I went for a 20wk sono and it moved!!! I'm in the clear now - restrictions lifted.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I had it with my 15 weeks sono and 18 weeks sono and at my last sono it moved.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Ok, glad it moved for you both. Why do they put restrictions on us if it has not moved?

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I had it at my 20 wk sono, thankfully by 27 wks it had moved on its own. My dr said 90% of the time it moves on its own.

They'll put you on restrictions b/c as the baby gets heavier & its more pressure, it could get dangerous. I had a friend have her baby at 29 wks b/c she walked (a mile in a parade...silly) & she ended up going into labor.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Oh ok...makes sense now, thanks. yay they said for the next 2 weeks, work and home and that is it...so I will be doing that...

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Hmmm well they do say that it may not move regardless ...don't worry..just ask your doctor, how far along are you?

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

I'm 18 1/2 weeks. I was just diagnosed today w/ Marginal Placenta Previa. I am going back for another sonogram at 28 weeks to check if it's moved.

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Mine developed early in the 2nd trimester - aboiut 6 weeks later it resolved, but I still have intermittent spotting...

Re: Anyone have Placenta Previa early on?

Nancy..are you given any restrictions?
