Her placenta never moved - she had full previa through her entire pregnancy. She had a planned c-section at 37 weeks. She lost a lot of blood during the surgery, but that is more likely due to the placenta accreta she had and not the previa itself. She needed a transfusion after delivery, but otherwise was fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-experience-with-full-previa#post-2450803 Fri, 05 Feb 2016 10:23:10 +0000 Alba4 2450803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: would love to hear your sister's story. Did it move? When did she end up delivering?</p> <p>I'm 19 weeks with a complete previa. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-experience-with-full-previa#post-2177977 Thu, 14 May 2015 10:38:48 +0000 littlebug 2177977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-experience-with-full-previa#post-2176590 Wed, 13 May 2015 09:31:44 +0000 autumnlove 2176590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am in the same situation as your sister so I am following! My Drs. said my RCS will take place sometime between 34-37 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-experience-with-full-previa#post-2176561 Wed, 13 May 2015 09:17:03 +0000 littlebug 2176561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My sister is about 28 weeks pregnant and has been told that she has full placenta previa. She was diagnosed with previa around 20 weeks, with the hope that the placenta would move as the pregnancy progressed, but at her appointment yesterday, she was told it's still full previa, which means she will definitely need a scheduled c-section at 37 weeks. She has been seeing a midwife and will start seeing an OB starting on Thursday for better monitoring. She said that only 10% of full previa cases make it to 37 weeks without bleeding, and if she starts to bleed she'll be put on bedrest. </p> <p>I guess I'm just wondering if anyone else had full previa and what your experience with that was. How long did you go in your pregnancy? Did you experience bleeding? Any complications after delivery? Anything else I should be aware of in order to better support her? She has a 2yo son who is pretty needy, and her husband travels (internationally) a lot for work, so bedrest will be tough for her (not that it's not hard for anyone!). </p>
