The only way to tell if your placenta has separated from the uterus it to go to your OBGYN and have them do a sonogram. If your doctor is unavailable, I would go to your local emergency room. I urge you to do this as soon as possible because my first daughter died from this and your baby may be in grave danger. The best of luck to you and I hope everything is ok.
