How would you know if your not able to push out a baby naturally (I've seen that that has been a reason for csections ) sorry to post on your post! Just curious!
My friend just had to have one and hers was planned because she has this thing where her left side is taller than her right not noticeable but i guess enough that her pubic bones couldn't have handled it or something like that lol
I've had 3 and my 4th will be sometime in sept. My oldest was breech and I was afraid of trying to turn her so my doc sxheduled one around 39 weeks. My other 2 were repeats except my last one came early so I went to the hospital (he broke my water) and as soon as they could....which was several hours later the on call doc delivered him and that's all she wrote. Wish I couldve had at least one of my babies vaginally, but healthy is best :-)
i agree with all the above. i had one 3 weeks ago because after my sons heart rate kept dropping dangerously low after a 6 day stop-start labour then a 9.5 hour active labour where i got to fully dilated but he was not coming, and when i was pushing his hr dipped to below 100 so they had to get him out fast. the next day, the consultant came to see me and said i won't be able to give birth naturally as my pelvis was too narrow and that's why my son wouldn't come as he was literally stuck, so if i have any more then i will need to have another section x
Pre eclampsia, gestational diabetes, breeched baby, pervious c sections, are all reasons but it depends on your circumstance and medical history
Some babies are breach so they schedule a c-section if they haven't rotated, some women have complications that can endanger the babies life and the mothers life so they schedule c-sections, plus what mommygg said, it just depends ya know?
I don't know every circumstance, but I have seen if there is a medical reason like breeched baby, or some ladies are tiny and cant push naturally. Most of the time I have seen them scheduled with doc. Sometimes their are emergency c sections....fetal distress, worn out mama too exhausted to push, high blood pressure ( I think )....and some other reasons. Im sure other ladies will have better input.
I think those who have theres scheduled ahead of time r women who have had previous c sections im not to sure though
Into labor before the scheduled c section? Sorry my phone decided to post before I was ready lol
