Yes, placenta grade 3 is normal at this stage. That just shows maturation of the placenta which is normal
If you opt for elective C section, better do it after 38 weeks, if other parameters are normal

37 weeks is fine. 38 weeks is better.
You should be prepared for the baby to go to the NICU for a few days .
You should take a repeat dose of Betnesol at least 4 days before Caesarean.

Yes. 37+ is good.
You can even wait a little longer if everything is fine.
