Placenta Accreta

So, we went for the NT scan today.  at 12w 6 d the measurement was 1.4, so fantastic!  Cute little nose and everything.  Then she said to us that she didn't want to freak us out, but she feels there's something wrong with the placenta.  She kept assuring us that baby looked perfect.  My bladder was extremely full so the baby was too squished to get good shots of certain things.  So, she let me empty then came back to look again. With an empty bladder, she thought it didn't look quite as drastic as it did at first.  The doctor confirmed that things didn't look normal.  This is pregnancy #8, live birth pregnancy #6 and kid #7.  I had a c/s with the twins due to dbl breech.  The placenta is high anterior and the accreta area is high, so it probably isn't due to the c/s scar, just the high number of children.  (??)

Has anybody else ever had this happen?  Did you deliver vaginally or do a c/s? Obviously if you're on here you didn't have to have a hysterectomy due to hemmorage.  :smileywink:  What about restrictions/limitations for the rest of the pregnancy?
