Placenta Previa Posted: 10-14-05 07:16am
I was originally diagnosed with low laying
placenta and said not to worry as it moves
up 90% of the time
i wasnt feeling good at all and just had
that feeling, that something wasnt right.
I went to triage and told them about
pains and aches (which are worse 2nd time
around and my intuition of not feeling
right the dr actually listened to me. So
they asked me to give blood and a urine
but nothing could be found when I was
about to get the okay to leave, I had
three drs walk in the room and start
asking me weird questions.
They were asking if I had ob-gyn (which I
didnt I was being followed by gp till 7
mths) and what hospital I planned to
deliver at I told them I hadnt even
thought of it yet. Anyways news came
quick kinda a smack in the face cause I
wanted to be wrong about not feeling right
(dont ask) and well I have marginal
placenta previa where it only covering a
part or something like that. Im on
bedrest now and I miss work!!
Anyone in this sitiuation???

Not in the situation you are in, but have
read up on this. From what I understand,
if you rest, the placenta can actually
move to the side (where I believe it
should be). Also the fact that the
placenta is only partially low lying,
there is a good chance that you will be
able to have a natural delivery.
You must be going mad though, having to
sit in a hospital with little to do! How
far along are you?
