Anterior placenta 3D scan at 28 weeks

Question

Hey mummies, I am currently 25 weeks and I have an anterior placenta. I just got to know from my gynae last week that I may not be able to be successful with the 3D scan since the placenta is blocking the baby :( any mummies managed to do the scan successfully despite the placenta’s position? Does the placenta move to another spot at later weeks? #FTM

I really feel you on this, being a first time mum and hearing that news from your gynae must have been quite worrying. My girl also had an anterior placenta and my gynae told me the same thing, but we managed to get some decent 3D scan images at around 28 weeks because the baby had shifted to a better position by then. It really does depend on how baby is lying on the day, so I would say just go ahead and try the scan closer to 28 weeks and keep your fingers crossed that baby cooperates lah.
