Your placenta moves as your uterus grows.  It's unlikely that it will move enough for a vaginal delivery, unless it's just barely covering your cervix.  It could be life threatening if you go into labor suddenly.

Mine was doing that on my 20wks scan went for another yesterday 34wks and it'd moved I was told if not id have to have a c section,  you might be lucky it may move when do you have another scan to find out?

I was told sometimes they put you on a Medication but other than that the only option is c section.

Yes as long as it's not covering the cervix it's ok.
