VESA PREVIA

I’m 32 weeks and was told I have vesa previa, where there’s a blood vessel laying across the uterus. Has anyone else had this? How to stop being scared and anxious constantly?

I'm 21 weeks and was diagnosed with both placenta previa and vasa previa at my anatomy scan last week. It's been rough and I'm terrified. I'm seeing a specialist this week but for now, all I know is that I'm on full pelvic rest and that I can't lift, exercise or do anything too strenuous. I was also told that I will have to stop working in a few weeks, that I might be hospitalized at 28w until delivery and that I will have to have a planned c-section around 36 weeks.I'm devastated, I was planning on an all natural birth with a midwife and a doula at a birthing center and that all went out the window in the blink of an eye. Plus, I have no idea how I'll be able to deal with the anxiety of knowing that anything can happen at any moment. So yeah, I'm right there with you girl ♥️

Although scary it’s nice to know I’m not alone. Im now 34 weeks and just trying to stay positive and calm until we deliver at 36 weeks. It’s hard though!

I'm 17w2d and was just diagnosed with accessory lobe and vasa previa after some heavy bright red bleeding warranted an er visit turned on floor stay. Complete pelvic rest for me too, playing everything else by ear and while unlikely praying we make it to our new goal of 34 weeks

Hi Amy. I know how it feels. I had some bleeding last Friday and on bed rest from now until 36 weeks. I’m currently 34 weeks.
