Hi,
I understand your concern.
Actually low lying placenta does not necessarily indicate preterm delivery.your doctor must have observed other symptoms of placental insufficiency,thats why you were prescribed maintain250 mg twice a week. & a dose of Betnasol.
Please don't get panic for not getting fetal movements. At this gestation fetal routine almost starts, & baby may be taking rest ,so not moving.
still, looking at the treatment given to you , it's better to visit your doctor & get yourself checked for fetal heart sounds, And get assured of fetal safety
Thanks,
I find this answer helpful
