Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

At 19 weeks the placenta is still to take its final position and to know that you must get ultrasound scan done after 28 weeks. The placenta covering the os (previa) may be a problem in normal delivery leading to severe bleeding or birth related complications. Getting an ultrasound scan after 28 weeks will tell the feasibility of a normal delivery. If you are under doctors supervision then no need to worry. Even if the previa persists please do not worry as your doctor will suggest cesarean delivery which will benefit you and your baby.
