Found out yesterday I had a low lying placenta (yep all my threads now are going to be baby orientated 
). So I thought ah that's grand, nowt major, perhaps another section if it doesn't move but sure been there done that, no worries whatsoever.
Till I decided to google 
So basically now I'm just going to enjoy my last few months on this earth...and if me and baby make it through the pregnancy I expect Oprah to open her couch back up and have me on as one of her 'miracle survivors'

I'd suggest talking to other mums but the horror stories they tell can be worse than the medical worst case scenario stuff.
What is it about a pregnant woman that causes everyone to tell them their horror pregnancy/labour stories?
Tell the midwife or doctor that you're worried and see what they say
Oooo.....googling symtoms and diagnoses is BAAAAAD. It turns sane people into hypochondriacs who write their wills and settle their debts immediately. 
And Veggie is right: don't talk to any other pregnant women.
Although...you've been there before. You're a survivor! 
Any problems, or you think they are problems dont google ! As Veggie says, tell the midwife, nurse or any other medic. And dont stress !! 
Dont read or listen to other womens stories, we are all different. xx
Lol Lori , we posted at the same time

It could have been worse.
You could have googled 'low flying polenta' and really worried yourself!

I'd steer clear of the internet and listen to your doctor etc.

because everyone's pregnancy and birth was the worst one in the world...no one's was as traumatic as theirs 
I'm not really worried, I was just curious...lets face it, there's not really much I can do about it...oooh I wonder would doing handstands get it to move....*goes to google*

Ohh right...he's a twat then.
According to google I should be mourning, or at least be considering palliative care for one of my children. It's always difficult to balance a need to know and a rational, individual case study of personal issues with a curious nature. Just stay positive and well Temps
oh no Suzy...is he/she okay?

Katty
Yeah he's fine, like nothing happened You look after you and the bump and avoid geting yourself in a tizzy
Temps, as others have said, speak to your doctor about it - and no more googling!
Low-lying placenta? Does that cause rain, or thunder?
awww good to hear it Suzy 
Ah, I'm sure the docs will explain all, I was just interested in the meantime Yogi I'm just glad I googled from my phone and not on the lappy...could you imagine the photos that would have come up
