Mine moved. 99% of women with "low-lying placentas" mid-pregnancy have plenty of room by the time they go into labor. (Obviously there are plenty of other reasons women end up with c-sections but it's very very rarely because of placenta previa.) There's a much better blood supply in the upper parts of the uterus. The placenta wants to get the best blood supply possible, so it "migrates". Pretty neat, and rarely fails.

I had two friends that had it. One it moved up as the baby grew and it really didn't worry her. The other it was still covering her cervix at 36wks so they delivered. I've heard in the majority it moves though as baby grows. Good luck!
