Lowlying posterior placenta
I have done with my anomaly scan at 19 weeks and i have told my placenta is low lying lower edge is 1.6cm away from the os. Previously i had a D&C last year 2018 sep 27. Is that because of this reason i got lowlying placenta? And as pregnancy progresses will my placenta move up?
