Re: Question about low lying placentasFrom: Dean Huffman . (dean@thehuffpeople.net)Fri Apr 27 12:42:26 2007
.. Placentas do not "migrate". One of two or three things happened. 1) One if the measuremnts was incorrect, either the first or the second. 2) The lower uterine segment thinned out and the area of the uterus where the placenta was located moved relative to the cervix (so the placenta moved relative to the cervix, but NOT relative to its implantation site). 3) A combination of 1) and 2) above. - - - - From: GIN11153@aol.com Subject: Question about low lying placentas Date: Apr 27, 2007 12:17 AM On a midwifery listserv I am on, someone said that she has a patient who had a placenta 3cm from the os at 33/34 weeks and a month later, it had migrated on it's own to 8cm from the os. Isn't that impossible at a late stage of pregnancy? Gail Neuman RNC CPHW student midwife and student nurse practitioner certified high risk OB Perinatal Nurse Associates Santa Ana, CA

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
