What does it mean when the placenta is on the back wall of the uterus?

When some expectant mothers go for a gynecological examination, they get the B-ultrasound order and see the posterior wall of the placenta displayed on it. At this time, the mother does not know what is going on. What is this posterior wall of the placenta? It turns out that the embryo is divided into the front wall, back wall, left wall, and right wall, and all four directions are normal. No matter whether the embryo is located on the front wall or the back wall of the uterus, as long as it is not placenta previa or placenta low, it will not affect the baby. However, placenta previa can cause intrauterine bleeding in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, which is very dangerous, so expectant mothers should keep it in mind. So is it reliable to say that the placenta on the back wall determines the boy or girl?

First, the location of the embryo is attached to the front wall or back wall of the uterus, or to the left or right side, facing south, north, east or west like the windows of a house, and has nothing to do with the delivery of a pregnant woman. What is related to the delivery of pregnant women is that if the embryo adheres to the vicinity of the internal opening of the uterus, the so-called placenta previa. In other words, the embryo is in front of the fetus, affecting the birth canal, which will affect the delivery of pregnant women. Therefore, the front, back, left and right walls of the embryo are a normal adhesion and there is no need to be overly nervous.

Second, the front wall and the back wall are OK, don't worry. I heard from others that the round and firm abdomen is the front wall, and the flat and big abdomen is the back wall. I don't know if it is true. Anyway, no matter which part it is, it will not affect the baby.

3. I would like to ask whether it is better for the embryo to be located on the posterior wall or the anterior wall of the uterus. Whether the embryo is located on the front or back wall of the uterus, as long as it is not placenta previa or low-lying placenta, it will not affect the baby.

4. The difference between the anterior and posterior walls of the placenta. The embryo attached to the anterior wall of the uterus means that the embryo is located on the anterior wall of the uterus, and the anterior and posterior walls of the placenta are normal. However, if the embryo is located on the posterior wall, it is relatively safe. If the embryo is located on the anterior wall, it means that the embryo is relatively close to the cervical os and is prone to dislocation, resulting in miscarriage or premature birth. Therefore, mothers with anterior placenta need to be more careful throughout pregnancy, especially when having sex in the second trimester.

Fifth, the traditional view that the front wall of the placenta is male and the back wall is female has no scientific evidence, and the site of embryo attachment has no direct correlation with the gender identification of the fetus. The gender of the baby in the belly has always been the most interesting topic for everyone. In addition to folk names such as "sour boy, spicy girl" and "pointy belly, round belly", there is also a saying that the gender can be determined by looking at the position of the embryo.

The anterior and posterior walls of the uterus are the normal places for the embryo to attach to the uterus. Doctors generally feel that the posterior wall of the placenta is better and relatively safe. Babies with anterior placenta are more susceptible to injury and are more likely to have miscarriage. However, pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much. They should not exercise too vigorously in daily life and should take enough rest. The above is an analysis of the pros and cons of the embryo being located on the posterior wall of the uterus. I hope it will be of some help.
