Placenta move?!

RBurnett · Apr 7th, 2012, 07:52 AM

At my 23 weeks scan the placenta was low lying and this was diagnosed by a internal scan. At 33 scan they did a over the belly scan and was told that it looks high but they will double check with a internal at my 35 week scan on Wednesday.

I really want to start using my ball but read not to if i have a low lying placenta..if the last scan said high do you think its safe to use or wait till Wednesday?

I'd wait until wed and ask doc if it's ok. I wouldn't want you to have an abruption which is quite serious.

You will prob be ok but I would wait just to be on the safe side, its only a few days and not worth it just incase its not moved xxx

Hun, I would wait for a bit more confirmation. Just for the safety of yourself and baby. Good luck and hope it is no longer low lying!

hey i am in the same situation, i found out i have low lying placenta at 31 weeks. i am waiting on my 35 week scan (on the 16th) to see if it has moved, hopefully it will as my doctor wants to do a c section at 36 weeks in case i go into labour on my own..
good luck with the baby.
