Hi,
At this stage of the pregnancy, the position of the placenta is not significant as it almost always moves upward into the upper part of the uterus with advancing pregnancy as the uterus continues to enlarge. The rest of the parameters are in confluence. Please follow up with another sonogram at 28 weeks to look for the position of the placenta. Please do not worry, everything would be fine by then. Hope your query has been answered. Wish you safe motherhood.
