When the placenta is positioned low in the uterus, a condition known as placenta previa, it can pose several dangers during pregnancy. This can lead to bleeding, particularly in the third trimester, and may increase the risk of preterm labor or complications during delivery. If the placenta obstructs the cervix, a cesarean section may be necessary to ensure the safety of both the mother and baby. Monitoring and medical guidance are crucial to manage these risks effectively.

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.

What is placentas?

During pregnancy, the placenta attaches itself to the uterus to provide the developing fetus blood, oxygen, and nourishment as well as removing waste from your baby. The placenta may implant itself at a low position in the uterus, during the early stages of pregnancy. Normally, as the uterus begins to expand to provide more room for your baby, the placenta moves upward but away of the cervix. If it doesn't move away, it may be blocking the opening of the cervix. This is known as placenta previa. If this does occur, the placenta will detach itself from the uterus in advance as the cervix begins to open up for labor. Generally, placenta previa can be detected before any severe harm is caused.


Can anyone explain how carrying your baby low in your cervix increases your chance of a miscarriage.?

You need to ask the person who told you the baby was low in your cervix, they are the best person to tell you. If your cervix is 'weak' it may open and you may miscarry. I think what you may have though is placenta previa, where the egg has implanted close to the cervix. As your uterus grows it stretches near the cervix and the placenta does not stretch so it pulls away from the wall of the uterus.
