scheduled. csection and contractions

If you have a scheduled csection, and you have contractions before that date, do u technically have to have regular ones.. like ive heard you shouldnt really go in until theyre like 5min apart. But with gettinf a csection are they gonna want me in there sooner than being in complete active labor

Yes you don't want baby to get into the birth canal before they start the procedure I have had two c section one planned one emergency after the first one they said if I started having contractions more then just Braxton hicks more than six an hour to call asap cuz it makes it more difficult to get baby out plus having a prior one they done want u to bleed out from pushing
