Preventing Acreta?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

I'm 13 weeks pg with my second baby. I hope to VBAC this time (DD #1 was an emergency c-section b/c her heart rate crashed and wasn't rebounding).  At my NT scan, I found out that my placenta is anterior again. Is it possible to prevent acreta while pg? 

 

Not sure if this matters, but my DD was 15 months old when I got pg again. If this baby arrives on/around the EDD, she will be exactly two when her brother or sister is born.

Congratulations on your new pregnancy. Unfortunately no, there is no way (that we know of) to prevent placenta accreta.

I used positive imagry. I just envisioned my placenta moving up and away from my scar. I figure it could hurt and it was the only think I could think of to do. I had a level 2 U/S at 32 weeks and placenta had moved up and baby's head was below it and they had me come back again at 34 weeks to verify there was no acreta and they found no signs of it.
