At 12 weeks of pregnancy, the term "placenta drop" may refer to the placenta shifting position within the uterus as it grows and develops. While the placenta typically continues to develop and attach higher in the uterus, some women may experience changes in its position. However, significant concerns about a "low-lying" placenta usually arise later in pregnancy. If there are concerns about placental position, it's important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

That hormone is called as progesterone. Placenta starts to produce this hormone from the first trimester only.


Do sextuplets share a placenta?

Only identical (monozygotic) multiples share a placenta (and not all of those). If two or more of the sextuplets are monozygotic, those may share a placenta, with their fraternal siblings having their own. If by some astronomical odds a monozygotic - sextuplet pregnancy was possible I cannot imagine the pregnancy surviving long enough to deliver viable babies with only one placenta supplying all their needs - in addition the risk of cord accidents would be extremely high.


How many months pregnant are you in 10 weeks?

40/9 = 5 weeks/month. 40/10 = 4 weeks/month. Every month actually has 4.5 weeks, but for the sake of argument they just say that it's 9 months. However, going by number of weeks is much more accurate.

I'm 26 weeks pregnant with a low laying placenta and started bleeding?

Go see your doctor as soon as possible, call them right now. It could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor. ANSWER GO TO THE HOSPITAL IMMEDIATELY I know this statement was made a while back but for anyone else, the commonest cause of bleeding in mid-late pregnancy is the low lying placenta (placenta previa) A cervical change is possible, an ectopic would present at around six weeks, and you don't always bleed, You would not have a miscarriage at this staGe (only prior to 20 weeks) it would be pre-term labor.
