Placenta Previa???

So I went to my Ultrasound today!! yeah!! I was super excited! She said everything looked good. Right after I had a OB appt with dr Schmidt and he commented that she did the full Ultrasound for the IPS screening ?!?! which we had already discussed I was NOT interested in. So he is clear she did that on her own and was not asked to do so. He was talking and commented that the tech had commented that she was concerned of Placenta Previa. Should I be worried??? I am only 13weeks!!! can they tell that soo early??

I dont know to much about it but will be keeping my eye on this thread.
Best of Luck

I had placenta privea with my second when they did the 18 week u/s and it had cleared by 29 weeks.

Too early to be worried, they also move.....

Gah! There is NO reason to worry at this point. Your uterus is so small that the chance the placenta is going to be over your cervix is very high at this point, but it means nothing because it usually migrates as your uterus grows. Some women still have placenta previa at 25, 30 weeks and it still usually migrates in time for the birth!

Thanks Ladies!! This is not something I have come across, I just wanted to make sure it wasnt a huge issue!

I wouldn't worry too much right now. You are still early.

Dr Schmidt Rocks...I was there today at 915 am for my incision and he put my mind at ease

I saw him at 10a! he was Sporting his Shorts already! LOL the man swears if he wears shorts the cold weather won't come back!

Ummmm he was wearing shorts in March!!!! Early March....

lol

He totally ROCKS I picked him personally when I had to have a consult.

I had a low lying placenta at 15 weeks, placenta previa at 20 weeks and then a normal placenta location at 30 weeks! don't worry, like everyone else said, it will move!

I had PP at 25 weeks with my DS...it moved within a couple of weeks!

I had a complete placenta previa....but like the pps most people don't end up with a previa at the end.

With mine I ended up with 2 months bedrest (admitted to the hospital a couple times too) and had him a bit over 3 weeks early (planned c-section).

Based on how my doctor explained mine to me I never thought mine would move and the US tech even said at one of my many US that I had a true complete placenta previa and mine wasn't moving. But the OB did US until I think a week before my c-section just in case it moved and I wouldn't need to have a c-section.

I had previa with this little one :-) It really freaked me out.. but it just meant taking it easy, watching for ANY bleeding and having some extra ultrasounds. My placenta has now moved up one centemeter so my OB thinks we are ok for a vaginal birth :-) He told me they almost ALWAYS move... unless they are completely covering the cervix... which at your you still have lots of time :-) I know others have said all this - lol... just wanted to reassure you from a mom currently going through the exact same thing ;-) I will have one more unltrasound just to see where it is in case we have anycomplications... but it is not likely to cause any concern. It is a normal thing momma :-)
