Brief Answer:
Dont worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply

1. Low lying placenta at such early gestational age is not significant.

2. As the gestational weeks increase the placenta will slowly go up.

3. Hence dont worry about it. The placenta will go up slowly.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
