i was dx with placenta previa at 32 weeks when i started bleeding.i was put on best rest for 4 weeks until i gave birth at 36 wks 1 day.i was on bedrest as usual but when my husband came home from work i went to use the bathroom ,i was bleeding profusely again.i called 911 and was on the way to the hospital
when i got to the hospital i was told i was in active labor and i would give birth today to our daughter.thakfully she was not in distress and the whole operation took about 9 mins.the dr said the placenta was coming out first but got her out quickly.she weighed 4lbs 6 oz.
she spent 2 wks in the nicu and now is home with us.she has no residual effects of the vent or tubes in her.
