How early in a pregnancy can a placenta separate from the uterus?

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.

What crosses placenta?

the placenta is attached to the umbilical cord which is attached to the baby's belly button.

Is it dangerous if placenta does not come out?

If the placenta does not come out then the doctor has to inject you with hormones to help you pass it out. If that still doesn't work then the doctor has to manually take it out, because if the placenta stays inside of you, it poses a health risk to the mother.

You have low backache feel sick tired flutters in your stomach can you be pregnant?

Yes! Those flutters or cramps and the low back ache could be signs that your uterus is working on expanding in preparation for growing a baby. The nausea could be from low blood sugar or progesterone production.

The irony is, a low back ache and nausea can also be symptoms that menstruation is approaching.

You can hear placenta but not heartbeat 13 weeks pregnant?

This may not be a good sign, or the baby could be in a position that is hard to hear. Ask for an ultrasound right away also go in for another test to hear the heartbeat in the meantime, also think about whether or not you have felt any movements yet. There is a chance that the baby's heart may have stopped and you have not miscarried on your own. But do not get too worried yet, remember that you are in control of your visits and demand an ultrasound right away. Good luck.

What does it mean if the ultrasound shows a placenta and no baby?

This is most likely to be what is called a "Blighted Ovum". This is due to a chromosomal abnormality occurs in the early stages after conception. It is not dangerous usually but you may need a curette if it doesn't abort naturally. A blighted ovum does not contain an embryo and is only the placenta and sac. Do a Google search or ask your doctor for more info. It is unlikely to be ectopic or where a baby has actually died in utero (see bottom two answers). This is because the embryonic sac would not be empty and there would remain some evidence of an embryo. With a blighted ovum no true embryo existed.

AnswerThis could be an ectopic pregnancy, where the egg implants itself outside the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube. This is not uncommon but is very dangerous and requires medical attention asap. AnswerUnfortunately if there is an empty pregnancy sac at 10 weeks the baby has died.

An ectopic pregnancy does not produce an empty sac and it is usuallly apparent way before 10 weeks.

AnswerI'm very sorry to hear about that - it does sound like a blighted ovum. And very hard to go through. I've had two confirmed blighted ovums, which unfortunately are due to chromosomal problems (usually this is the cause) the baby did not form past a certain point (which happens very early in the pregnancy) and was reabsorbed by the mothers body. Your body sometimes does not realize this has happened for quite a while (which would be a missed miscarriage). I didn't know I had a blighted ovum until I was in my fourth month the first time (when I went to the ER with slight bleeding) and I was 11 weeks pregnant the second time (and I had no idea that the baby had died until we had an ultrasound done at the first appt). I had to have a D & C for both of them, I guess my body just didn't want to let go. So anyway my point is - Don't believe people when they tell you that there was never a baby, because that is just hurtful and insensitive. This is very common but that doesn't make it hurt any less. And it doesn't make you feel better to think that there was never a baby. I have had a total of 3 miscarriages (this first one miscarried at 6wks) and consider myself the mother of 3 angel babies. On a good note - they usually have no bearing on your future pregnancies, because I'm pregnant again I'm at 9 wks and 6days today! This is a confirmed healthy pregnancy (I've had 2 ultrasounds already and have seen the heartbeat and seen the little peanut move around just last week). So good luck with your future pregnancies, everything will be fine!

What things do the placenta hormones do?

What is the umbilical made from?

In the process of childbirth when is the placenta expelled from the uterus?

Most likely will you develop a infection when the placenta decompose before you get a chance to get pregnant and that alone can cause a miscarriage. See a doctor ASAP. After a miscarriage you will often need a D&C to clean out the uterus. The miscarriage is not over until everything is out.

Can pregnant women have honey?

Yes, pregnant women can have honey. Just like anything, don't have it in excess.

Babies cannot have honey- as in, babies that have already been born. Their digestive system doesn't fully eliminate honey as grown ups bodies do and bacteria can build up in their intestines. However, if you are a mother who is currently pregnant or breastfeeding a baby- it is safe because the honey passes through YOU and is broken down safely before passing onto your baby. Just don't give your son or daughter honey after birth until they are about two years of age so their bodies have time to fully metabolize and break down the enzymes that can turn into bacteria.

Is a placenta and a womb the same thing?

No. The womb is your uterus. The placenta is what attaches the baby to the umbilical chord and provides the baby with nutrients. During labor the female will expel the placenta after the baby is delivered.
