Can vasa previa improve as the pregnancy progresses?

Possibly. Unlike a placenta previa the vessels involved in a vasa previa are unlikely to erode away (which is how a placenta previa seemingly “moves”). There is a chance that this vessel will become thrombosed (plugged). This would take away the risk of fetal bleeding, but whether the baby would tolerate this depends on what proportion of the blood flows through this vessel.
