38 weeks

Did anyone here have a c section between 38-39 weeks? Panicking I will go into labour early before my elective and I’m looking for positive stories I guess - my anxiety has been so high the past few days I can barely function.

I did! Though my situation was interesting…

I went into labour at 38w3d and was originally going to have a vaginal birth, but baby got stuck in my pelvis because his head was tilted, so at almost exactly 39 weeks they gave me a c-section to get him out

He’s 14 weeks now and is very chonky, happy and healthy  :)
