La posterior placenta means that the placenta has located in the back of the uterus. It is located in the closest part of the spine, in the rear area. The anterior placenta is located in an antagonistic way, it is situated in the front part or in the area closest to the mother's navel. So during gestation the baby's kicks can be felt more noticeably.
Any of the three positions of the placenta during pregnancy (anterior, posterior or fundic) do not report any complications. Nor does it entail no special check.

Both the anterior and posterior placenta are considered normal pregnancies. Anterior placenta means that it is situated in the uterine surface closest to the umbilicus, while the posterior placenta is located in the area closest to the back.

This location does not present itself as a normal pregnancy and, given the possible consequences, you should carry out continuous monitoring.
Placenta previa can be presented as marginal or total prior. It is marginal because it can occur near the leather of the uterus in early pregnancy. But as pregnancy is formalized and the uterus increases in size, the placenta may move from place and thus not prevent childbirth. If this does not happen at the end of the pregnancy and given the impossibility of a birth, it is necessary to perform a caesarean section.
