Placentas

[Josephine_Beth]

OK, wierd question;

What does it mean when you have a high or low placenta?

Always tried to ask at the hospital but never get a clear answer. I have a high placenta.

I think a high placenta is fine and completely normal its when you have a low lying placenta that can cause problems.
Theres some info here: http://www.babyworld.co.uk/information/ ... acenta.asp

yes, thanks for the info, my friend had a low lying placenta up until birth and she had to have a C-section because it was potentially fatal to her and the baby but they're both fine now
