posterior placenta previa

Hi Everybody
I am scared to death.  I have posterior placenta previa, it is completely covering the os of the cervix.  I have had 4 previous c-sections.  The previa itself is not what scares me.  I am so scared of the real possibility of placenta accerta!   I really don't want a hysterectomy.  I fear the blood loss and also the hysterectomy  leading to early menopause.  I have only been diagnosed with complete placenta previa but will have my 20 week ultrasound in a few days.  Has anyone else ever had this fear or posterior placenta previa?  Thank you for reading my post :)

I watch the TV show  deliver me and the one doctor had that. What you are worried about is a true what she was worried about. But if you have a good doctor and have faith then all will work out the way it should. I wish you luck just take it easy and relax.
