    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.
