OBGYN,  's  Response
At this stage in pregnancy, a low lying placenta (LLP) is very common and nothing to be concerned about. usually, as the uterus grows, the placenta will move away from the cervix and your pregnancy will be normal. Most doctors will want to get a repeat ultrasound later on just to make sure the placenta is not too close to the cervix. Everything else on that report looked fine. Congratulations! I hope this answer was helpful, and good luck!
