Yes. It is safe as long as you don't have any symptoms.

Most of the times when low lying placenta is shown in 1st trimester scan, you just need to repeat ultrasound at 32 weeks. Most of the times this placenta which was apparently looking low lying earlier is in the upper part of the uterus. As the uterus grows with the growing pregnancy, the true position of placenta is revealed. If it remains low lying at 32 weeks also, then it is truly low lying.
Climbing steps doing everyday work is not at all risky. Do everything. No problem at all.

Repeat scan check for placental position, and we have to see how much near the OS it is
DO NOT STRAIN MUCH IF ITS LOW LYING PLACENTA
