There seems to be an increase in cases of placenta accreta.
Locally and internationally.
Placenta accreta is an invasive placenta going into the maternal uterine wall to some extent. It can result in the placenta not detaching after the birth of the baby, and lead to severe hemorrhage.
When diagnosed prenatally with ultrasound, life-saving measure can be undertaken, often leading to an earlier delivery and a complex cesarian section.
Happily, placenta accreta is relatively rare still, and screening is available (although imperfect) for people with risk factors.

I often think on the little choices we make. How important it is to keep in mind the future we need to create for humanity to thrive and for the Earth to survive the epoch we are in.
For example, developing now the leadership of the next generation; the open hearted collaboration. Those choices are not always easy in a system built on transactional relationships.
In business, in anything in this society, there is money. How money is generated, distributed, spent. Personally and for businesses, organizations.
It seems that money is the key decision variable - but would this be true in a more evolved society? A society where there is less inequity, more purpose, more collaboration for the greater good? less competition, less war, less ego driven need for validation ?
Other variables would be at least as important, such as supporting the people, providing service that is needed, in a way that is actually serving instead of imposing old ideologies. Creativity, curiosity, holding space.
As a dreamer, a rebel and (history will tell) visionary; finding purpose in setting something (Milestones) off the beaten path is a gift from the Universe, God, whatever You call it. I am truly grateful for the journey.

Early first trimester ultrasound is useful to: locate the pregnancy (intrauterine versus ectopic), determine the gestational age of the pregnancy, number of embryos, uterine and pelvic pathologies. It can also confirm an early loss depending on the situation.

Early first trimester ultrasound is often emotional. Everyone comes with their history and their unique situation. We will be there to support you through the journey.

Possible outcomes after an early first trimester scan could be:
-everything looks OK at this time
- there are some findings concerning for an early loss
- there is a definite early loss
- we cannot find where the pregnancy is located (pregnancy of unknown location)
- there is an ectopic pregnancy requiring urgent additional consultation
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The accuracy of the due date based on ultrasound is best when the embryo is >10 mm (~ 7w2d), falling between 3-8 days error range.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For pregnancies < 8 wk, we often offer an endovaginal (internal probe) scan, as the resolution is better to identify the size of embryo and determine if there is cardiac motion.
