low lying placenta

[fordgal]

I just had a scan at 28 weeks and it shows my placenta hasn't lifted at all from 19 week scan Has anyone been in this same situation

Kewl thanks for the advice ladies all new for me never had it with my previous 2 pain in the butt tho cause the drs keep ordering scans and we live 400km from nearest scan place, lots of travelling! :-)

Its about 2cm away from opening present, got a repeat u/s in 3 weeks I'm not very big altho baby isright on schedule hhoping he has a massive growth spurt in the next few weeks had 2 complicated vaginals and although I don't want a repeat of complications I don't want my last bub tob a c section, it freaks me out. Glad to hear some have risen in that last ytri you hear conflicting stories about how much growth your uterus does towards the end

I am right here with you. Mine is on the cervix. I have had bleeding and contractions so I am on bed rest.

I had the same thing with my last. Doc had me down as potentially having placenta previa and possible c-section, but in the last trimester as my belly grew it grew up out of the danger area. So there's still hope, but they'll watch it carefully.

Do you know how low it is? My doctor always told me that they don't worry about it unless its within 2.5 cm from the cervix. Sorry if this doesn't help.
