Placenta attaching to scar tissue
Has anyone had this happen? I have an abnormally high uterus due to my previous 2 sections and great amount of scar tissue and I also have an anterior placenta. I went for my 17 week appt today and he wAs concerned at how high my placenta was and how close it was to my scar tissue. He said that if it attaches to the scar tissue it could potentially result in a hysterectomy and and early section. He said that baby should be fine, and honestly I can deal with whatever happens to me as long as baby is ok but after coming home and doing the dreaded google I'm scared out of my mind

i personally dont have experience... but my sisters doctor told her no more kids after her 3rd section because thats what happened... and its much more likely to happen again and cause an issue.

Re: Placenta attaching to scar tissue
I'm also due for my 3rd c sec. They do look for the placenta attaching to c scar and scarring in general. I was told they don't really like to see what you are describing, but it sounds like it happens often. On the flip side, I have a lot of scarring around my incision and was told no more after this one. I also feel nervous and won't be googling.
