Brief Answer:
Increased chances of cesarean

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your anxiety.
Application of stitch and low lying placenta both increase the chance of cesarean delivery and frankly bed rest also increases cesarean risk as gravitational lowering of head is not there. But the final decision is decided at the time of delivery.
All the best
