{{hugs}} I had placenta previa with my daughter. Bled every two weeks like clockwork, and I never stopped being terrified. Then a prematurely ruptured sac with infected placenta and she was born way too early by emergency c-section. She’s being a 7 year old pest right now, dancing around singing into her toothbrush to delay going to bed. 😃 Hang in there. It’s all you can do. ---

I had placenta previa. Turned out to be a complete non-event. As they predicted, the stretching and expanding of the uterus during my pregnancy caused the cervical opening and the placenta to become further apart. My sister in law just had the same experience in her most recent pregnancy. How it works out that way for you too. ---
