I'm feeling kind of anxious about my wife's recent obstetrical scan. It showed a single live fetus in the cephalic position at 29 weeks with a mature grade III placenta in the upper segment. Is it still possible for us to go through a normal vaginal delivery with these findings?

I'm usually on a 30-day cycle and have PCOD. I've been going through fertility treatment and started taking Duphaston from the 16th day. My period was due on the 5th, and now it's the 12th, but I still haven't gotten it. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. Should I stop taking Duphaston, or is there a chance I'll get my period while still on it?
