Did you ask your OB?

I was told at my 20 week scan that my placenta was on the lower side. I dont think it's much to worry about, they say most of the time it will move up on it's own as your womb grows. I have another scan at 30 and 36 weeks to check if it has moved. I think worst case scenario, a low placenta could cause bleeding or if it doesnt move it can block babys way out and may need a c section x

@Sabrina yes she said it is normal but I honestly didnt feel right about it!

@Amy thank you for your response! I have another ultrasound in 2 weeks a c section wow! I never had one with my boys we will see I pray everything goes well with you and your baby ❤️

I was told I had a low lying placenta at 20 weeks at my anatomy scan. And I was told no sex for ten weeks since it could irritate the placenta, and that I’d have a follow up appointment at week 30 to check if the placenta moved up as it grew (hopefully!). I’m at 28 weeks now and keeping my fingers crossed… I was told the same thing, if it ends up covering the cervix i would need a C-section

@Marianne yes they told me the same thing no smex! And I gotta get a check as well I’m 27 weeks now!

I had a complete previa placenta (my placenta was completely covering my cervix) it moved on its own in about 5 weeks when I returned to my OBGYN

Same! But Doc said it could change and be normal…

@Kassie Ty for this , I have hope!!
