Laranna, my client is anterior. I don't understand what he meant that it was in an ideal position, but he said as the baby's head would move down, the placenta would 'move up' against the pressure...
Thanks Kelly. My ob is concerned about the bleeding in labour when the placenta pulls away. The bottom half of the uterus doesn't contract as efficiently as the top half therefore more risk for heamorrhage.

I also think Rosehip Fairy has made a very valid point. I am sure most of us research before we choose our obs, so why second guess them and ourselves... I trust my ob but I'm still going to ask questions and do my research because I want to know why then that way I am making an informed and educated decision.

My placenta implanted where it implanted. That's something out of my control and I can't change it so I have to be prepared for the risks if I go into labour naturally as well as be prepared that I could very well face a C-section.

I'm a big believer in fate and all that and I am glad that Kelly's client is getting to have the birth she planned.
