Hi I think you have a low lying placenta. You should avoid coitus and any trauma and exertion. Take proper bed rest. In case any bleeding or spotting happens, you should consult your doctor immediately. Generally placenta moves upwards by 32 weeks. So, you can get a scan done at interval of 3 to 4 weeks to confirm the position of placenta. Hope it helps.
