The girls had a 2nd trimester ultrasound yesterday and they said that the placenta is in a low position. The doctor says go less walking and more resting, but I'm still worried...Has anyone experienced this? How did you manage or do you walk?

It happened to me like that, don't worry, it'll be fine. Just don't overexert yourself and lie down with your legs raised.

Мари, What about raising your legs while lying on your back? Or on your side?

They told me it was low at 19 weeks too; by 24 weeks everything was already fine. Don't worry, you're only making it worse for yourself with these nerves, everything will be okay!

At the second screening there was also a low-lying placenta. The doctor said it's a normal occurrence and should rise. I had an ultrasound at 24 weeks and everything was unchanged. Two days ago the result showed that it had risen and the baby had assumed the head-down position. Don't worry, it's normal.

No physical exertion; you can raise your legs up for at least 10–15 minutes a day. I had the same diagnosis. It moved up at 30 weeks.

At my first screening they told me I have a low-lying placenta... The doctor said to treat myself like "crystal", not to get nervous, sit and lie down more, don't squat, don't lift heavy things. The second screening isn't until October 15. I hope everything will be okay.

Mine was low too. They said it would go up, so I didn't take any special precautions. I worked as usual, and everything's fine. I carry the shopping bags myself.

Yes, a lot of people have it low) it's not as scary as you imagine) They were right, go out less and rest more — it'll go up on its own later

I have placenta previa, I assume that's the same thing? It hasn't lifted yet (((( waiting for the second scan, I don't know if it's because of that or what but my belly often hurts (it pulls... and periodically my belly goes rock-hard (((((

I had the same during my second pregnancy. They prescribed wearing a support (maternity) belt and getting more rest. Don't worry, it's nothing serious. Just don't overexert yourself.
