Can the placenta still grow after 28 weeks1

  After 28 weeks of pregnancy, it is usually difficult for the placenta to grow up because the placenta completely covers the cervical opening and is unlikely to move. The central placenta is prone to bleeding, so it is important to pay attention to bed rest, avoid sexual activity, have a light diet, drink plenty of water, and avoid constipation. Pregnant women should also pay attention to avoiding standing or squatting for a long time. If symptoms of vaginal bleeding are found, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.

  When pregnant women have a low placenta, it is important to take good care of oneself and avoid all strenuous activities such as running, jumping, etc. It is absolutely inappropriate to do some exercises, such as squatting, because by 28 weeks of pregnancy, the abdomen has already risen and the lower limbs are under a lot of pressure. If squatting is done, it will be difficult, and the placenta will be lowered. Squatting can cause the cervix to expand, and the placenta will be easily stretched, leading to peeling or bleeding symptoms.

  Pregnant women with low placenta should closely monitor their physical condition. If there are no other discomfort symptoms, there is generally no need to worry too much. If it is not possible during delivery, a cesarean section can be chosen. If there are complications, such as heavy bleeding or recurrent bleeding, or if it has reached the clinical stage, termination of pregnancy can be considered based on the actual situation of the pregnant woman.
