Anterior Placenta and C Section

[HotI]

If you have an anterior placenta, can this be a potential problem if they are doing a c section? Or is the uterine wall large enough so they can choose where to cut if the placenta is anterior?

My cuts are really low so I guess they could just adjust the position of where they cut.

While I didn't have a CS, I did have an anterior placenta and after my waters broke and they were very meconium stained I was given a short space of time to progress after they induced me. They came to talk to me about a CS but by then my body had started pushing. So they definitely had no concerns about a CS for me.

I had an anterior placenta with dd1 and no issues with csection. Because they cut so low I think its only an issue if the placenta is near the cervix.

I have had 2 anterior placenta's and 2 CS. Its only really an issue if placenta is low lying.

I had an anterior placenta and c/s with DD1 but nothing was ever mentioned and no problems
