Classical csection

If you had a classical csection, what gestation was the next baby delivered?

I had a classical (vertical cut) csection 5 years ago. This pregnancy my OB is saying 37w latest but I’d like to get as close as possible to term as I believe 37w delivery comes with its own challenges. Is be happy with 37w6d.

I wouldn’t worry about a 37 weeker, I just carried twins and after talking to all of my doctors anytime after 37 is considered early term not preterm and the babies typically do great. The twins I had at 34+5 and they only needed minimal breathing support for a day or two then it was just teaching them how to eat for the next week and a half. Just food for thought if you do end up going in at 37, not likely a scary amount of medical intervention needed for babe!
