Circumvallate Placenta

Hi ladies! I am 21 weeks pregnant with a baby girl and found out at my 20 week ultrasound that I have a rare placenta condition called circumvallate placenta. It only happens in like 1% of pregnancies. It can cause preterm labor, growth restriction, placental abruption and cause the baby to be deprived of nutrients and oxygen. I see a specialist tomorrow. I am super scared. I fortunately have found a few other women with this condition who were able to carry their babies to full term. I am looking for more success stories if anyone has this or knows someone who has it. This is my miracle baby and I am trying to have faith that everything will be okay.
