A member asked:
Must i worry if placenta is calcifying?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
what did your OB say: That is not a good sign but depends on the severity, if you are at 37 weeks your OB can do an amnio and for lung maturity and get you delivered and if you are at least 39 weeks you should be induced the ideal time to deliver is 39-40 weeks least chance for fetal problems if u are already past your due date i rec immediate delivery but call your OB and i assume u are also being followed by perinato.
