How safe is it to get pregnant again after after 3 consecutive ceaserean section deliveries?

What is it called when the placenta is birthed before the fetus?
This condition is called Placenta Previa. With placenta previa, the placenta grows on the lower part of the uterus partially or totally covering the opening of the cervix. The placenta should form at the top of the uterus, above the baby. With a normal pregnancy, the baby would be born first, then the placenta. With placenta previa, the placenta would be delivered first. Women with placenta previa require a c-section because as soon as the umbilical cord comes into contact with oxygen, the baby will automatically breathe with his lungs. Delivering the placenta first puts the baby at risk of suffocation in the womb.

What happens if your placenta is too low?
This is called Placenta previa and it means that they will have to give you a c-section, because the placenta would be delivered before the baby and that is not a good thing so they play it safe by doing the c-scection. It also depends on how far you are. If you are not that far along then it is a chance that the placenta will move up.
Can the placenta move during pregnancy?
Yes. But the movement is relative. Placenta does not change the position. But lower placenta may move up. So that placenta previa may become normal placenta.
