Is that possible to have placenta previa at 15 weeks pregnant?

Question

Tell me your experience

Answer 1

the actual term for this being that your only 15 weeks is called subchronic hemotomia i got this when i was only like 9 or 10 weeks pregnant. my experience wasnt so lucky because i have a bad health record and thats not what hurt the baby in my case. my body just rejected it cause most of the time it goes closed when they found out i something had gone wrong the placenta was in the right place and the hole was closed up. If you have any bleeding at this time you may want to ask your doctor if its a hemotomia. good luck

Answer 2

Prior to 24 weeks, the diagnosis of a low lying placenta is made instead of placenta previa. As the uterus stretches and grows, it can drag the placenta upwards and out of the way of the baby's head.

If the placenta is still bloking the cervical opening at 24 weeks, the diagnosis is made so that c-section planning can begin. Usually, the placenta doesn't move out of the way if it hasn't by 24 weeks, but a scan is usually repeated at 24-36 weeks to ensure that a c-section is still necessary.

I am happy to say that I still had PP at 24 weeks, but the placenta had moved out of the way by 35 weeks and I could avoid a c-section and have a natural birth!

Answer 3

I've got no experience. I'm just a student nurse. What I know is that, it's not termed as placenta previa. Because, placenta previa may occur only during delivery. What happens is that the placenta goes down first or may block the passageway of the fetus. Maybe, it's the hemorrhage that you are saying, and it's quite fatal.

I think it is, but there are 4 different levels of Placenta Praevia. At your 20 wk scan they will detect if there is a problem, and scan you further at 30 wks at this stage they will see if there is a problem (and if there is it can also rectify itself by moving up out of the way in time for labour), if however it's still in the way they will keep a close eye on you and decide on a course of action. Again this depends on what level you have. At this stage there is no point to worry as there's nothing anybody can do. Just keep your fingers crossed that it sorts itself out, and in a lot of cases it does. Don't fret until your 20 wk scan and have a chat with somebody.

Just do your usual, don't go running round like a headless chicken, feet up, sleep when you can and don't worry about it - there's nothing you can do about it anyway and not till it's confirmed. Good luck.

Did you ask your Dr? Is there a specific reason why you are asking this?
