Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 Sara, What do you know about placenta previa?? I'm 20 weeks pregnant with number 2 and had an ultrasound yesterday that showed that my placenta is low. I'm scheduled for a second ultrasound at 28 weeks to see if the placenta has moved. I'm trying not to worry at this point but am a little nervous especially with my very active 18 month old. I'd appreciate any info. You can email me directly if you prefer. Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2002 Report Share Posted January 27, 2002 Hi , I just wanted to share my experience with placenta previa with you. I was diagnosed with placenta previa for one of my twins when I was about 20 weeks along. As it happened, the placenta pulled itself up my uterus (so to speak) as it grew and it was never an issue. I DID have a C-section, but that was because I didn't dilate after 15 hrs of pitocin! I hope this helps! Jill Ramos, Las Vegas, NV > > Beck, > > Glad you are all ok.
