842.0. "Thick Placenta" by DEVLPR::SHADO::coppola () Wed Nov 02 1994 10:51

		Thick Placenta

A friend of mine is 19 weeks pregnant and just found out she has
a "thick" placenta.  They are concerned that there is not enough
room for the baby to grow.  They have scheduled an amnio for next
week.  I would like to hear from anyone who has any information about
this condition.  This is her first baby and she is very upset.

Thanks for any information

842.1huge placenta??SAPPHO::DUBOISTrust in God, but tie your camelThu Nov 03 1994 09:345
I don't know what a "thick" placenta is.  I had a huge placenta, the biggest
that the nurses had ever seen.  It didn't hurt the baby; he was 8 lbs, 12 oz
and very healthy overall.  Of course, I was *huge*.  :-}
