Placenta previa

I had my anataomy scan right at 18 weeks and was told I have placenta Previa and also that I’m having a girl

I'm surprised they actually diagnosed it as placenta previa that early. Did they mention partial or complete previa? As opposed to low lying?

At my anatomy scan at 20 weeks I was told my placenta was low lying, but that there was still time for it to move so I was not yet diagnosed as having placenta previa. I go in Friday for a 28 week u/s to check it's position. If it has moved the required 2 cm away from my cervix, that's it. If it hasn't, I go back in another 4 weeks for a follow-up u/s to check position again. If at that point it is still too close I believe that then gets diagnosed as placenta previa.
