Left lateral placenta?

Question

I just had my 20 week anatomy scan done and both my other babies I had posterior placenta. This time I have a left lateral placenta.. should I be worried? When I looked this up it said that with it being left lateral placenta I could have increased risk of preeclampsia and preterm labor and a breech baby? Is this true?? I’m really worried now

Answer

Ask your real live doctor, and not google. Truthfully there’s nothing you can do about it, so you deal with whatever happens. I couldn’t tell you where my placenta was on any of my pregnancies, because it’s not in my control and ultimately you play the cards your dealt. Stressing about the percentages and what ifs is a pointless waste of energy.
