Does anyone here have any experience with placenta previa? Wife is at 24 weeks now with this condition. Worried sick over this and wondering what measures can be taken.

hey mate, my wife had the same case. which stage is she in? the best is to rest more and do not over exert her strength but what does doctor advice?

The doctor did not mention the stage but mentioned that it is completely covering cervix. The doc seems to be reluctant to share too much info other than to observe for bleeding and to head over to the hospital. Perhaps not wanting us to be too worried.

We've been doing quite a bit of digging online but can't find too much reliable info.

So, in your wife's case. Was there any bleeding or did things go smoothly? If you don't mind sharing.

measures?

1. do not miss the appointment by obstetrician
obstetrician surely has made the appointment more frequent compared to normal pregnancy for monitoring.

2. if any bleeding per vagina, go to hospital immediately.

3. do the daily count to 10 movement chart if you haven't already.

4. depending on the extent of the placenta previa, and possible outcome, be prepared for c-section and possibility of early delivery.

Thanks. Aware of the points above. The thing about bleeding is what worries us most now. As we are currently based in sg temporarily for work and need to figure out how to get back to kl bearing in mind we need to get to the hospital asap any moment.

if bleed happen in singapore, go to singapore hospital. or which ever hospital that is nearest.

don't do silly stuff like going all the way to kl.

Ohh, what i meant was that we are supposed to be heading back to kl as we are about done with our work here. Given she might bleed any moment, we're trying to figure out the safest way to travel back.
