Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the placenta reaching internal os might be mild degree of placenta praevia.But there is chance of bleeding during delivery and fetal distress.It might be done with utmost monitoring.If there is any fetal compromise then surgery might be planned.Take rest.Avoid physical strain and intercourse.Observe for fetal movements.
