A. Being five months pregnant with twins and having placenta previa in one twin along with low movement can be concerning, but it is not uncommon in twin pregnancies and can often be managed with careful monitoring. Here's what it means: Placenta previa means the placenta is lying low in the uterus, possibly covering the cervix. This can lead to bleeding risks later in pregnancy, but in many cases, the placenta moves upward as the uterus grows. Regular scans are essential. Low movement at 5 months (around 20 weeks) may not always be abnormal. In twin pregnancies, it can be harder to feel both babies move clearly early on. However, if you're noticing less movement than expected or a change in pattern, it must be reported to your doctor immediately. What you should do: Regular ultrasounds to monitor both babies and placenta position. Avoid heavy physical activity or lifting, especially with placenta previa. Report any bleeding, cramping, or reduced fetal movement immediately. Your doctor might recommend bed rest, close observation, and possibly early delivery planning if risks increase later in pregnancy. With good medical supervision, many women with similar conditions go on to deliver healthy babies. Please stay in close touch with your gynecologist and follow all precautions.
