welcome to hcm ...mam as the placenta is anterior and covering os there is risk of vaginal bleeding and harm to fetus called placenta preavia ..
in such cases i suggest caesarean section instead of vaginal delivery
but be cautius as there may be painless vaginal bleeding anytime ..if such happens please rush to nearest emergency room as soon as possible
and please avoid undue physical exertion
keep your Hb level adequate
if you have any other doubt i am here to help
