ANS IS PLACENTA PREVIA.
WHY NOT ABR PLACENTA just bec no uteine cont goes in favour of placenta praevia?
abr placenta uterine cont should be present in case history?

no,this q is from UW

I think that painless bleeding without uterine contractions is in favour of placenta previa...also the history of previous CS and the reassuring FHR are also suggestive for placenta previa...

what is UW explaination ??
