Placenta priva?

AmberRoseF · February 2015

My Ob diagnosed me with complete placenta privia. Has anyone else had this problem, if so please share. I'm so scared.

I had a complete placenta PREVIA with my last. Have you had any bleeding previous to now? Mine was diagnosed at the 20 week anatomy scan. I had a perfectly normal pregnancy and had a beautiful baby delivered via csection at 37 weeks. The worst thing you can do with a previa is worry yourself. It is still early the previa "may" move so don't worry. If you have zero bleeding take it easy relax don't stress. Worst case scenario without complications is a csection and you still get a perfectly healthy baby. Use the search function and find all the other previa moms on here. Good luck and happy pregnancy.

Hi ! Please search the board this is the millionth time someone had posted this topic I do not have it BUT it's very common and you will find helpful information and support if you just take a look down the board. Wishing you well

This is so unfair. Yes there are previous posts but there haven't been for a long while and the OP is looking for some support without reviving a post that's weeks or months old. Glad that you don't have to deal with the tealbee but imagine that you did and were facing a change of birth plan that you weren't anticipating or concerned about complications. It would be scary and you'd need someplace safe to turn for support. Let's be that place. This board has been excellent for the past few days, finally has some life to it and people are starting to feel more comfortable sharing. Thanks for doing that everyone. Let's keep that rolling and stop shutting new posts down.

OP - I know its hard not to worry but this is really manageable and worry and stress won't help. I don't have placenta previa but I did have some early complications that we just had to wait out. It was so hard to know there was nothing I could do but sit tight and wait. The two things that helped me the most were gathering as much information from the doctors as possible and asking some close friends to help keep me occupied and distracted, and remind me to stop when my worry was spiraling with what ifs. There is still time for the placenta to move and the best you can do is follow your doctor's advice for follow-up scans and watch for complications.

People, we aren't in middle school. If you see the title of a repeat post and it annoys you, you CAN keep scrolling, instead of being the Mean Girls of the bump.

This is a very common thread and she will find lots of good information and support by visiting those threads. It's actually helpfull advice. Many people have discused this topic in detail and she can still receive support. No one said she didn't deserve that.

It has not been weeks. There have been like 3 posts on this just this week, likely even on page 1. If I see any more posts on this or baby names I might just scream. I'm all for new posts, but not repetitive ones!

I'm very new to this app. If me asking a question upsets you then keep your opinion to yourself. Maybe I just didn feel like reading other people questions in it. I felt like asking myself. I did not come here for pity or I make anyone feel bad for me, I simply asked for some information on this problem.

No I have not bled yet except some very light spotting. I'm now 29 weeks and yes have to have a csection on or before my 37th week.

Again, if you don't like what someone post then keep scrolling. I don't o around asking people not to post theree questions because I have already read a post on it. Get over yourselfs and srry being supportive. That's what this site is for. Not bashin someone for a simple question.

You were not bashed in anyway, shape or form. She merely suggested looking down the page or to the second page for some other questions. If you read in the 'new here read me first' thread it explains that you should search before starting a new thread about symptoms and such.

Many of the posters on any board are not on all the time, so even though you have your own thread there will be people who have great advice that will have chimed in on a previous post, and may miss yours.

KonaCoffeeBean · April 2015

Thanks for digging up this thread two months later. It's super important.

AmberRoseF · April 2015

Honestly I wasn't even looking for advice. I know how to read and search things up. I wanted to hear other story's. What others experience with this was. And even with reading other post all I could find was the same information I get offline. Not actual story's of what the others experience was with this problem. That's okay. I don't find this app or page very useful. More drama from criticizing people or being tired of hearing the same things. I'm sorry I thought that's what these groups were for.

AmberRoseF · April 2015

And as to bringing the thread back two months later. I actuall work. I'm not always on my phone or computer so I don't keep a constant eye on these. My apologies for making you read it....

MrsWiggleWaggle · April 2015

Cool OP, sorry you didn't find the story's you were looking for when you checked back two months later because of your actuall work. Many people tend to post very regularly and represent a range of experiences. Sorry yours wasn't one of them and you couldn't find a single person on this board with the same thing. Anyway, thanks for sharing your story with us. I'm sure these posts and your very personal story were super helpful for any lurkers who also had this pretty common condition and didn't find the old posts helpfull. Sorry looking up old threads And other "people questions" didn't give you any info that would have helped you modify, personalize, or specify your question in a way that might help community members respond with more than "yes", "no", or general information. It's hard for some of them to relate when a thread is written like a yahoo answers question. Glad to know your condition has not been so scary after all! Best of luck with the next two months! Can't wait to hear how it all is turning out!

We are over ourselfs and will never bash you by suggesting there are some other resources existing on the board with good information and then wishing you the best of luck ever again!

Apology accepted, and thank you for the drama! I can totally understand how you wouldn't have time in the past two months to post a response here. You've been such an active member of this community, you can see why we all care so much about your follow up posts. Keep 'em coming!

AmberRoseF · April 2015

As I said I'm not trying to argue. All I wanted was to hear what others went trough with this. One person actually answered that. I have found tons of information on it, just not the type of information I was looking for. Yes it's a common thing in pregnancies yet I have only found maybe 2 people who could actually tell me they had this and this I what they went through. As I and Morgainej said if you don't like the post keep scrolling. Stop trying to argue and move on. I posted this looking for advice and answers not to argue with people over a repost. Or the fact that I'm not as active as some. I'm a mom of a 2 year old, working, and busy. Not everyone can check these things daily. As I said before, I am just trying to hear other peoples story's. And the dos and don'ts on this website\ app said don't argue with people because of similar post.
