Hi,
When my DS was born I had a retained placenta. I gave birth in a MWLU so I was rushed into hospital by ambulance. My placenta was then manually removed in the operating theatre- some two and a half hours after giving birth so by that point I had lost a lot of blood. So it was a pretty traumatic experience for all involved.
But basically, all I would like to know is those of you that had a retain placenta first time round did you have the same with your second birth or do you know the likelihood of it happening again? I will be under consultant care this time so I am sure they will be able to provide me with some info but I am just interested in hearing your experiences.
Many thanks
