Placenta Previa update

MamaLlama14

Good news: baby is right on track with growth, 50th %ile, and my cervix is 4.4cm and tightly closed. Go cervix!

Bad news: placenta is still completely covering the cervix and hasn't moved at all since my last sono. Bad placenta

The Plan: another follow up u/s in 2 weeks and continue with 'modified activity'- no gym, sex, heavy lifting, limit excessive walking/standing/stair climbing.  Because I've had a lot of consistent cramping lately they did a urine culture to check for any infections that might be causing it and will put me on antibiotics if necessary when the culture comes back.  The doctor gave me the same speech about how it "could migrate" before 28-30 weeks so we're not having any more conversation about the reality of a c/s until at least the next u/s.

I'm in the same exact boat as you right now, so I know how you feel! T&P's going your way that it moves before your next appointment! That's good news your cervix is behaving!

Glad all is well with the baby! Sorry the previa is still causing issues. Hopefully it does resolve on its own before you have to worry about surgery.

Mine was still at the bottom today too, although the tech couldn't tell me how bad it was. Hope your next 8 weeks are not too full of worry!
