Group II: women without placenta previa at a similar gestational age as (bunch II). Placenta position was classified as foremost, back and fundal placenta. Results: there was high huge distinction between hemoglobin levels when activity in the placenta previa gathering. Additionally, there was high distinction between the placenta previa gathering and the control group in respect to fetal haematocrit esteem, which was higher among placenta previa gathering.
