Placenta Pervia Continues

Hey, I'm looking for advice from STM who had Placenta Pervia. I had an U/S last week and got the results yesterday. The placenta is 1cm from my cervix. I go back in 3 weeks for another U/S to check for any movement. So my question is at what point am i in the clear to have a vaginal birth? Is it like 5cm away or what is the deciding factor to not have to have a C-section? Did you experience any bleeding prior? 

These questions would have been asked yesterday but i saw a step-in dr yesterday who wasn't familiar with me/situation and i didn't feel like she cared and just kept saying wait till your next U/S. 

Also anyone else who is currently going through this, what has your experience been thus far?

Anything more than 2 cm is what I was told. I had it with my last and it had moved by my 30 week u/s. Good luck!!

@cmerribury  Oh that makes me feel a bit better. i was 28 weeks at the last U/S, so hopefully the next one will put me at ease. I do not want to go through the healing process of a c-section

No advice, but I crossing my fingers for you to be able to have a safe vaginal birth! Sounds like your super close, and still have enough time for that placenta to move along.

I'll keep my finders crossed for you we found mine moved by my 30 week u/s as well.

My friend's just moved at 33wks.  It is a freaking miracle, they knew it was there since the first trimester and were fully prepared for a c-section, now they feel a little unprepared to do it the natural way.  I have my crossables crossed for you.

I still have 4 more weeks to wait for my 30 week follow up U/S. After the initial google/webMD rabbit hole, I calmed down. But I think I have also kind of settled on the idea of a C-Section, and have this fear of the unknown of a vaginal birth.
