just to chime in here - i was dx'ed w/complete placenta previa, which ultimately became marginal. docs insisted i have a section and my son was delivered two weeks before his due date. he has an h just below his left eye which we're watching (he's 5 1/2 months old). i don't believe any examination of the placenta was done, though the nurse asked if i wanted it (LOL). i guess she thought i might like to bury it beneath a tree or make it into capsules or some such. finally got the ped to refer us to the vascular anomalies clinic at the local children's hospital so i should have some indication of our treatment options soon.
