Placenta previa

Anyone has been diagnosed with placenta previa ? What the doctor tell you ? Are you in rest bed or you are just taking it easy but still taking walks daily and doing chores around the house.
Thanks

I wasn't told bed rest or to take it easy. I wasn't told anything to be honest and I carried on doing my normally daily life, mowing the garden etc and my placenta abrupted so I would always advise to do as little as possible to avoid it happening to anyone else.x

I had stage three placenta previa with my first baby (partially covered the cervix). It moved by 32 weeks. I would go for walks, clean etc but would get my husband to do any heavy lifting/ change bedding x
