I have completed my 5th month of pregnancy. In my scan at 22 weeks placenta appeared low lying 2.9 cm from os. Is anything to worry about it? Any suggestions or precautions? I have a kid with 4 year and it was a normal delivery .In my 14 th week scanning placenta appeared normal.

As placenta is low lying avoid heavy work and prolonged standing, do not strain yourself, do not lift heavy things, Drink plenty of fluids and take rich fibre diet so that you do not have constipation. Avoid sexual contact with husband. Usually as pregnancy advances placenta migrates upwards. Get an ultrasound repeated at 8th month of pregnancy for placental location.
