Closed petition placental abruption awareness in ante natal clinics

Closed on 25 June 2013

Every ante natal clinic should have an information leaflet describing the signs, symptoms and advice on the condition placental abruption, also known as placentae abruptio, a condition which unfortunately people only learn about after it has happened.
in brief, during pregnancy the placenta detaches from the uterine wall causing a lack of oxygen to the unvborn baby, it is a potentially life threatening condition to both mother and unborn. There are 2 types of the condition: internal or concealed p.a. and external p.a. both of which are equally as bad.
As a mother of 5,having had 2 normal and healthy pregnancies i went on to have an external p.a. with my 3rd child, then a internal p.a. with my 4th. i then had a normal pregnancy with my 5th and have had several tests both antenatal and postnatal and there is no reasons why.
The most important thing is TIME.....
