I worked with a woman who had a placenta accreta left in place for many months after birth, in an effort to avoid a hysterectomy and in to allow it to die off. The entire placenta remained in her uterus....She brought in a full milk supply and in fact was oversupplied for the first three months. Placenta doesn't always win!
