Placenta Previa and Placenta Accreta

Stacie

Hi everyone.

Thought I’d post here.

I’m 30 and I’m from the UK

I’ve been for my 20 week scan today although I’m a little further gone, all of 6 days lol. Will be 21 weeks tomorrow.

We are having a little girl and this will be our 6th baby. We lost our 5th baby last January 2017.

My previous delivery was in 2015 with a little boy born by elective csection.

Anyways.

Today I was told I have an anterior placenta lying low across my cervix.

They also told me that it may have attached itself to the previous csection scar.

I’ve tried googling (which is not good and stressing) so I thought I’d ask on here to see if any other mommies had this with their pregnancies and could maybe offer advice etc.

My consultant today didn’t really say a lot.

Just that I need to go back 18th January so they could have a good look at her heart and spine and tummy and she was being a little diva and wouldn’t lie still for long enough for them to check 🙈.

Thankyou everyone.

Any advice is greatly appreciated. X x x x x x
