Total placenta previa at 13 weeks

[liiza]

I was diagnosed with a total previa at 13 weeks. I'm wondering if it could move away completely by week 18? Anybody who have had placenta previa-when were you diagnosed and did it move out of the way? At what week?

Hi! I was dx with pp at 20 weeks. They say that in 95% of cases it's moved out of the way by 30 weeks. I will be going back for a level 2 u/s at 30 weeks to check the status. I am being seen by my OB every two weeks because I am having twins, so she looks at every appt via u/s too. Good luck! Are you bleeding?

Yes, I had a9 bleeding episode at 13 weeks. It has stopped now and I'm currently in week 15. How does the doctors deal with it in the Us? Area you on sickleave?

I was put on pelvic rest (nothing in the vagina) for the time being. Unless i startbleeding i wont have any further restrictions at the moment. And I was told to prepare for a c section, there is still time for the pp to move, but I think the fact that I have twins my likely hood of a c section is greater to begin with and the pp just adds to it.
