Answer: I'm not a doctor. But I too have a low lying placenta. You need to take additional care of yourself. Yes, it will move up eventually. You have to take certain precautions like No lifting heavy objects, no vigorous exercises walking is ok, no bending or squatting too much. No sex or masturbation, orgasms can cause the placenta to detach. In a few weeks it should move up, ideally above 3cm is considered safe. Before you plan a long travel talk to your doc. Avoid bumpy rides. Also if you experience spotting or brown discharge immediately call your doctor.
