Placenta in front?

[10413]

I'm 22 wks and my placenta is currently in the front. If it doesn't move before I go to deliver, will they have to do a c-section? Has anyone else went through this?

My placenta was in the front of my belly, not covering my cervix. So is yours covering your cervix or in the front of your belly? If its in the front of your belly that is perfectly fine. You can still have a vaginal birth or if for some reason you aren't dilating or something they can still do a c section they will just around where your placenta is.

I had this and it didnt move til i was 32 weeks. Otherwise the said id have c section.

It is very very dangerous to deliver the placenta first. But most cases correct as the pregnancy progresses! Good luck!

Most of the time it goes where is supposed to, but yes, a c section will be required.

My doctor explained to me that i have placenta previa, meaning that my placenta is underneath the baby. She told me it usually goes back into the right place for most people but if it does not then they usually have to do a csection. my sister had it and started bleeding as soon as she was dialating so its unsafe to have a vaginal birth when you have this problem. im sure others have delivered vaginally with this but if my doctor recommends a csection for me im going to do it. Hope this helps
