placenta previa.. help

I'm am now 27wks pregnant with my first baby boy. But at my 20wks appointment I was told I have placenta previa. I was told by my doctor that my husband and I couldn't have sex and i could no longer exercise. I really don't want to have a C-section. I read online that the placenta can move as the baby grows. Who else has been thru this? Did you have to have a C-section or where you able to have a natural delivery?

Don't stress about it too much. My placenta was low it was infront of baby when I was around 20wks or so and it moved up when I went for my 24wk visit. Once it moves up It won't come back down.

I also had placenta previa as well as my sister, she gave birth naturally and my placenta moved as well , so I would have had a natural birth but due to my baby boys heart condition we had to have an emergency c section. You most likely will be fine and the placenta will move but when I found out I was also scared lol but just relax and kick your feet up while you can, goodluck !!
