Low lying placenta

Has anyone had a private scan and their low lying placenta has moved up already?
I’m abit worried about everything I’m reading online, I’m sure it will be fine but also I’m due to travel in 2 weeks and it’s such a grey area.

I had a low lying placenta at 20 weeks….had a repeat scan at 23 and the placenta had moved right to the top as had baby. Mad how much it all moved and I was just unaware….try not to worry xxx

Oh wow Emma that’s reassuring! Did they give you any advice when you were told you had it? I didn’t really get anything. I’m meant to be going on a long haul flight and no one seems to have the answer as to whether it’s safe or not! Xx

No they just said don’t worry it often moves up in time and if it doesn’t we will scan you more….i did the same as you, googled it! Panicked for 3 weeks straight thinking the worst….but all was fine in the end…..and even if it doesn’t move up, you will be monitored so so closely. I know it’s hard but honestly try not to worry and just trust your body will do what it needs xxx

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Worth the wait and pain. Baby girl arrived at 7:15 this am weighing 7lbs 6oz. She is so calm and chill.

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Growth scan

So had my 28 week midwife appointment- all good but after measuring bump- I’m now waiting on a scan within a few days as bump is measuring small I’m not worried as I am guessing a tape measure is hardly accurate but
For anyone who has been in a similar position- what was the outcome after the scan? Was the baby on the smaller side ?
Was baby measuring normal?

Thanks
