Hi,
At this time the breech presentation doesn't matter as the baby is very small. As your placenta is at level of internal or, you have to take some precautions like don't work too much, take bed rest and if any bleeding happens visit your doctor immediately. Placenta in most cases will grow upwards and it can be confirmed on a ultrasound after one or two months.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
