A member asked:

I am 25 weeks pregnant with complete previa. my ob delivers at a level 2 nicu hopital but there is a level 3 20 minutes away. should i stay with her?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Previa: With previa, you have the risk of heavy bleeding when labor begins. A c-section will be planned prior to your due date. The majority of time, complications are avoided and a healthy baby is the usual outcome.
