Has anyone else been diagnosed with a low-lying placenta at their 20-week scan? 🤍

As a first-time mum, I’m finding the uncertainty a bit overwhelming. I’m not sure whether to prepare for a vaginal birth or a C-section, when to start maternity leave, or even what recovery items I should be buying.

For those who’ve been through this, did you have to wait until your 32-week scan to find out whether your placenta had moved? Or did you have any signs before then?

I’d love to hear your experiences. How did you cope with the waiting and plan for everything when so much was still uncertain? Any advice would be really appreciated. 💕

I had this… had my 32 week scan and it was still slightly covering and then had a 36 week scan where it had moved enough to have a vaginal birth 🎉 currently 37 weeks now and just waitin on the little man. It is an uncertain time and you just can’t plan anything I’m afraid- I had come to peace that what will be will be xx

I was told at 20 weeks and sadly have to wait till 32 weeks to see if it’s moved this is also my 1st baby so I was slightly distraught by the fact I may not be able to have a virginal birth but it’s just a waiting game

8 weeks and tests getting lighter

Hi im currently 8 weeks pregnant and ive noticed that my tests are becoming lighter, I know your going to tell me i shouldn't be testing 🙃 but ive had 4 missed misscarriges in the last couple of years so my anxiety is high! I had a scan at 6+3 with a heartbeat and a crl of 7mm. I just dont understand why the tests are becoming lighter. Its not the hook affect because ive tried to dilute and it becomes even lighter, I have noticed the tests are darker with 3rd wee of the day rather than fmu. Has anyone else experienced this and everything turned out to be okay? I cant help to feel this is going to turn into another missed miscarriage.

11 Months💛

My Lilly is 11 months today and is ready for Summer!☀️ I can’t believe she’ll be 1 soon.🥹 I’m curious - Whose baby is the oldest in this group (July 1st or sooner), and whose is the youngest (July 31st or later)?

Im having an elective c section in 6 days and Im absolutely terrified!

I have chosen to have an elective c section due to having a lot more control over the situation and other factors but now I’m really panicking! Theres only two ways to get her out and they both seem terrible to me 😂. I haven’t ever had any surgery and i even put off going to the dentist or getting blood tests due to my fears.

Im not even sure what I’m looking for here but hopefully hearing some of your guys experiences might help ❤️
