Hi! Yes, I was diagnosed early 2nd tri with complete placenta previa, 1st pregnancy 2019. Not low but complete coverage of birth canal. The risk while being diagnosed - going into massive haemorrhaging, premature birth, etc. I was told that I had no other option but cesarean.
Dr mentioned if it moved, it’d be low lying & I can do a vaginal birth. He assured me that low lying placenta doesn’t increase morbidity, just that a e-csec is slightly higher & in most cases 9/10, it will migrate away from cervix.
My only aim - hoped for a low lying placenta. By some miracle of a few cm it shifted up at wk 36.
Momma to be, I understand your fears & concerns. You’re only at wk 32. My advice, trust your body, trust it will provide a safe passage for your baby’s birth & enjoy your pregnancy.
If it makes you feel better, when you start planning your birth plan, don’t cross out a vaginal birth & have the option of a Gentle Cesarean (Google this). Also for a fact, you can schedule an elective cesc with no extra cost of an emer csec at wk 38 onwards.
As long as it’s not complete coverage, you still can do a vaginal birth.
No matter the placement of placenta, I hope the birth of your little one be a beautiful one for you ❤️
