If not covering internal os, majority of low-lying placenta migrate upwards by 7th month of pregnancy. Till then, your wife should take precautions like avoiding heavy work/exercises/weight lifting etc and abstinence. Low lying placenta carries a Risk of sudden painless bleeding anytime during the pregnancy and may require a caesarean section for delivery if it persists till term. In case of sudden bleeding, it is extremely risky for both mother and baby.
