Hi guys, just a quick update for you.
So I'm now 31 weeks pregnant, still have acute placenta previa with no chance of it moving prior to b-day! That isn't such an issue as baby was being born via elective section anyway.
The main issue is that the docs are concerned that the placenta may have implanted into my old scar tissue in my womb and the worry is they may not be able to remove the placenta without a lot of bleeding or potentially needing a hysterectomy.
I'm actually quite calm about it all as this is definitely my last baby and to be honest as long as baby and me are safe and healthy I will do anything.
After having gone through a neo-natal death and a miscarriage my children are even more precious.
On the positive side there had been talk of me needing a general anaesthetic but my Consultant is happy to do a spinal block with consultant anaesthetist there and consultant delivering baby and blood on standby so that I have the best possible care and if they need to put me under they can.
So I have a specialist scan this week to see if they can see if the placenta is attached to the scar tissue and maybe will know more then.
Will keep updating
Sarah
