Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Placenta is located on the posterior wall of the uterus, and it has no role in the transverse lie of the baby.
If the transverse lie persists till 37 weeks of pregnancy, then you will be needing caesarean section for delivery.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
