Low lying placenta at such an early stage usually resolves when uterus enlarges in size .You need not worry about it at present....Most of the miscarriages take place before 12 weeks and u crossed that...so no increased risk

1)Normally in most of cases as size of uterus increases currently appearing low lying placenta seen in upper part of uterus ( in actually placenta never moves . It's uterus which get enlarge ).
There are different grades of placenta previa . Grade 4 is dangerous one.
In your case mostly it will appear in upper part as gestation progress. It will get confirmed in anamoly scan ( next scan )
2) Most miscarriage occurres in first trimester before 12 wks . You crossed 12 wks so do not worry.
3) Don't do Google believe on your obstetrician.
