Thanks for your kind reply, Mam doctor told me that now my placenta position has moved upward and clotting, spotting caused due to retro-placental hemorrhage is also cured, so is their any risk of moving it again downward in later months of pregnancy.

Answered by Dr. Manisha Jain (4 hours later)

Brief Answer:
never moves downwards

Detailed Answer:
I can understand your concern but don't feel anxious as there is nothing to worry placenta once found on upper segment never moves back to the lower segment.
Now there is no such risk so just relax.
May god bless you with a healthy baby soon.
