C-section

Im having my 5th c-section  and I want to know if its ti risky to have a c-section at 38 weeks of pregnancy.

Both of my c-sections were done at 38 weeks. I did not have any complications, but having a c section is always risky.

Having the surgery at 38 weeks is probably going to be less risky for you than waiting until you are full term.  The longer your uterus is enlarged and the bigger the baby gets, the higher your risk of uterine rupture.  With this being your 5th c/s your risks of that have already increased significantly.

I agree with LosingMyMindinGA.

We can now share blogs here on the forums (YAY) so I want to share with you one of my blog friends who has had a few c-sections and blogs a lot about it:

Not sure if it mentions what week she was when she had him.
