I believe your higher levels will be an asset to your future child.
They will also help you make more red cells, during the pregnancy which puts a huge load on the new mother. Anemia is very common then.
There are infants today born with B12 deficiency and are very ill and don't develop.
Your prenatal has folic acid in it too, to prevent spina bifida, which is a crippling defect in the spinal cord.
Your high result could be from that prenatal. I would not stop it.

Vitamin B12 crosses the placenta during pregnancy and is present in breast milk. Exclusively breastfed infants of women who consume no animal products may have very limited reserves of vitamin B12 and can develop vitamin B12 deficiency within months of birth [5,43]. Undetected and untreated vitamin B12 deficiency in infants can result in severe and permanent neurological damage.

B12 deficiency in infants can be due to severe animal protein restriction in vegans, or in mothers with undiagnosed pernicious anemia.
