Is High Lying Placenta Normal?

If your health care provider determines that you have a posterior placenta, there's no need to worry. It's completely normal. The upper (or fundal) portion of the uterine back wall is one of the best locations for the fetus to be in.

Which placenta position is best for normal delivery?

A posterior placenta means that your placenta has implanted onto the back of your uterus. This means that you have the advantage of feeling your baby's movements earlier and stronger as well as allowing the baby to get into the most optimum position for birth (spine at the top of your belly - anterior).

Is placenta anterior high normal?

An anterior placenta simply means your placenta is attached to the front wall of your uterus, between the baby and your tummy. It's a completely normal place for it to implant and develop. It isn't connected to having a low-lying placenta (called placenta previa) and it shouldn't cause you problems.
