Anterior placenta previa with placental lake seen at 28w ultrasound, 2 d&cs & no c-section hx. any risk of placenta accreta? best time to deliver?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Placenta Previa: Placenta previa occurs when the placenta is covering the opening of the cervix. Vaginal delivery is possible in mild cases of previa. Placenta accreta is a different condition where the placenta gets "stuck" to the uterus. While the risk of accreta increases when you have previa, that risk is low if you have never had a c-section before. Follow-up with your obstetrician regarding delivery dates.
