My midwife said that's if baby is posterior not if the placenta is posterior hun, you'll get the back ache if placenta is posterior or anterior either way x

I thought posterior was more common too but most people I know have had anterior. I think they are both as common as each other maybe. it's just where the egg attatches itself to the wall of the uterus. i'm real lucky to be pregnant coz if my egg had moved anymore before attaching it wouldve come out (chemical i presume). That's why mine is so low over my cervix. hopefully it has moved. Will know next week x
