That's what I'm afraid of. I dont have enough paid time off for a c section and we just got a car so if I dont make payments they will repossess it and I have to pay rent and I'm freaking out cuz all our savings went to the car. The one we had was not safe to drive anymore

I think it's more so if the placenta is covering or obstructing the cervix in some way

Try not to stress :) 10 weeks is still quite a lot of time for anything to happen but as scary as it sounds if you need a c section just try remember it's what is best and safest for you and baby :) gud luck and I'm not too far behind you haha

My placenta was (maybe still is) up front and the dr said it was completely fine. Never said it could mean anything during birth. Im going to ask at my next appointment.

Who told you first off? Maybe just ask your dr to better explain and that you need done confirmation to settle your mind about it.
