Anterior placenta has no effect on a VBAC. Mine was anterior. DD2 was in the perfect birthing position when I went into labour (I'm sure lots of early labour helped with that).

Yes its normal to start getting bh earlier in subsequent pregnancies. Mine start about 12 to 15 wks now. Take note of them though and act if you have any concerns about them.
If you are feeling movements at the side but not at the front, sounds like an anterior placenta. I had an anterior placenta with #5 and i felt her heaps at the sides. I would not think an anterior placenta would affect chances of a VBAC, only if it was low.

^^ this!
I had anterior placentas for both of my VBA2C's, the only concern that they usually have is if the placenta knits itself into the scar tissue from the section, but I don't think its that common. My babies weren't posterior either (well not when I went into labour anyway, DD3 flipped a bit before dropping into the birth canal) so don't worry too much about the placement of it
I had BH's earlier each pregnancy, so they were definitely happening before the time that your OB said they occur at
