Placenta Previa, Anyone?

[Tasha S.]

Hi Ladies!

I am 20 weeks pregnant with baby #2. I had my mid-pregnancy ultrasound two days ago, and was told that I have marginal placenta previa (It's marginal, but the edge of the placenta is presently completely covering my cervix.). I had a c-section with my daughter due to her being breech, and it was such a horrible experience that I don't want to live through it again! I was hoping beyond hoping for a successful v-bac, and now the technician said that I have a 50-50 chance of being able to attempt a v-bac--that is, if the placenta uncovers my cervix as my uterus expands.
Any success stories? Or horror stories. Maybe hearing bad stories would make me feel braver about having a repeat c-section.
Thanks for reading!

My placenta was at the edge of the cervix but not covering it at 18 weeks. It had moved enough by 26 weeks. Hope it moves for you!

I had marginal and it moved completely out of the way.

So long as its marginal, you have a really good chance of it moving out of the way.

FX!!!! Best of luck!
