2nd time C-section
Hi Girls,
I was just wondering for those of you had or are scheduled for a c-section for the second time, how far in advance before your due date are you scheduled?
I want to have the baby scheduled for 38 weeks and my doc said I would have to have an amnio to make sure the babies lungs are ready. Any one else have this?
Thanks!

Re: 2nd time C-section
I wanted mine to be as close to my EDD as possible but DS had other ideas and came 2 weeks early.

Re: 2nd time C-section
Second was at 37 weeks with the amnio the day before. Found out it is hospital policy to check lung maturity with the amnio - not so much the doctors policy

Re: 2nd time C-section
My doctor and I decided on the date when I was 7.5 months. I gave birth 5 days before my '2nd' due date - 2 weeks before my original due date.

Re: 2nd time C-section
No #2 yet but was told it would not be scheduled before 39 weeks if I go back to Winthrop and they keep their rule. Scheduled c-sections are not done earlier than 39 weeks unless you go in labor before the 39 week mark. That's assuming there are no other medical issues requiring an earlier delivery time.

Re: 2nd time C-section
I think it isactually NYS law for an amino to be done before 38-39 weeks. Unless they are medically neccessary to have it earlier( GD, preeclampsia, etc...) Just to make sure that the babies lungs are not to premature. I think you now need one to be induced before 39 weeks as well...
