I had placenta praevia with my first pregnancy. Big bleeds, frequent stays in hospital, living in fear but made it to 37 and DS arrived safely by emergency caesarean.
Now I am 15 weeks pregnant and have been told that the chances of having it again are the same as anyone who has had 1 previous section which is roughly 5% but an terrified. At my 12 week scan the lady wouldn't tell me if it was high or low. She said she wouldn't be able to tell although I have read they can...
Am wondering if I could get a private scan to see where it is rather than wait another 5 weeks... I don't feel like I can enjoy being pregnant until I know! But then if it is low then I will just feel worse...
If you had It the first time did you get it again?
