Hi, I'm new here. I was diagnosed with complete posterior placenta previa at 20 weeks, my dr and the tech told me that they didn't think my placenta would move. I had a rescan today at 24 weeks and there was no change, if anything it got worse. She showed me how it was posterior and wrapped around the bottom of my uterus all the way into the front, I swear it wasn't that bad at 20.weeks. my dr said it's growing the wrong way, I assume because it's stretching with my uterus but because it's attached in the front and back its getting worse instead of better? I haven't had any bleeding yet, thankfully. My question is has anyone had a previa like this and had it resolve? This is baby #8 and I've never had a c-section, I know alot of women have c-section but I'm kinda freaked out, mainly cuz I've never had one and don't know what to expect, besides the obvious. I go back at 32 weeks for another scan, but my dr basically told me because of how it's growing I will be having a c-section at 36 to 37 weeks. She won't let me go any farther. I'm AMA (will be 37 when baby comes) and my last 2 were premature and she doesn't want to take the chance of me going into labor. Any experiences with this type of previa?
