I am 16 weeks pregnant and I noticed vaginal discharge (little) and few drops of blood. I immediately had a sonography which says that placenta is significantly ying low and it is seen reaching internal os. I have consulted my doctor and she advised me for complete bed rest. I want to know whether it is normal and it will be okay soon by doing bedrest? Any advice which can help me to get the baby in the normal position?
when I was 8 wks I also had noticed bleeding. My gyn prescribed me progesterone. I did bed rest for 2 months. now my baby is one and half month.

a low lying placenta is a common finding early on. in majority of cases the placenta will move upwards as the uterus expands in size as pregnancy progresses. a repeat scan will show this. in few the placenta will continue to remain low. there is nothing for you to do to make the placenta move. rest for now.
