Posterior Placenta

The posterior placenta means your placenta has attached to the back wall of your uterus, closest to your spine. Think of it like a cushion positioned between your baby and your back rather than between your baby and your belly. This positioning is completely normal and occurs in approximately 50-60% of pregnancies. (article: Women in Balance Team) 

The placenta is located on the back wall of the uterus, closest to the mother's spine. This is considered an ideal position for fetal growth and often allows a stronger perception of baby movements.
