low laying placenta

[mandplus4]

hello ladies i was wondering if anyone has had a low laying placenta, last night i was admitted to hospital because i had a heavy bleed, i really thought i was losing my baby as i had bad period pains aswell, but luckily they found my babies heartbeat, i stopped bleeding at 3 o clock this morning, they kept me in and today i had a scan to c why i was bleeding and they said ive got a low laying placenta that it is completly covering my cervix,the midwife said it may move but at the mo it looks like i may have to have c section, she also said i may have another heavy bleed and to go straight in if i do, so now im really worried, ive looked it up and it said alot do move but i dont know, i just thought somebody might have had the same thing happen xxxxxx

Hiya,
I too had a low-lying placenta.
It meant no sex through the pregnancy (
It did move in time for the delivery though.
I was told about 80% of them move in time (it doesn't actually move apparently, it grows away).
Good Luck.
