Ok today I am 28 weeks pregnant, due date 12-22-08. My first son was born at 39 weeks by c section due to failure to progress so my doctor told me I would be a repeat c section. Can anyone tell me when they usually schedule a repeat c section? I assume they don't want you to go into labor so you don't have that additional stress on you, but I was curious what happened with you all. Also do they just give you a set of dates and let you pick or do they ask you what you want? I am getting scared because I went into preterm labor with my son at 32 weeks and was on bedrest until I had him and they induced me twice and still had a c section but they said my pelvis was too narrower to have natural birth.

I just had mine scheduled and it's 12/5 with my due date as 12/7! I didn't think they waited until that close to your due date, I'm a little concerned. They gave me 2 dates to choose from but I'm willing to bet that it depends on your doctor and the availability of the hospital.

it does all depend on your dr, and the hospital regulations... here, you can schedule up to 7 days before your due date.... unless there is an issue that warrents going earlier.... here they offer you the days available (ones that aren't booked with inductions and such) and go from there... but you should ask your dr for the specifics since it is differently everywhere.... good luck and congrats...my dd was born last dec 18, so i love hearing about babies due in december! makes winter and the holidays that much more special....
