A member asked:

Placenta:posterior,dipping to the lower uterine segment os grade "o" maturity is it safe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: As long as the placenta does not dip down so low as to block the cervix (a placenta previa) this is not a problem. Grade 0 simply means that the placenta is still immature which is what is expected. Increased placental maturity too early is potentially a problem.
