If your scan is a recent one there is a good chance that you are going to have a problem in having a normal delivery n you can have an increased chance of ceaserean or operation
If this is a scan done more than 2months back wait for another week do a repeat scan
there s a chance that the placenta might migrate up
Mean while take rest avoid straining, sex drink enough water n relax
