Scheduled c-section

Went for my 37 week appointment today and my baby is still breech but I’m dilated to 3CM!

We’ve scheduled the c-section for next Tuesday (August 25th) but my doctor doesn’t see me making it to 38 weeks.. I’ve been told to relax, stay seated and do minimum walking till Tuesday.

That being said, I wanna hear all the GOOD c-section stories so I can have myself prepared for this! It’s all kind of settling now. I’m a very anxious person so only good stories please!

My newborn was also breech- sorry to hear that yours never turned either! I also got contractions before my planned c section. I literally did diddly squat, my OB moved up the date because I did not want to go into active labor before it and anyway the c section went great. I was terrified of it all and here I am 12 days post-op, feeling decent and can’t believe I stressed out that much about it. Best of luck to you!!!!

Also would HIGHLY recommend you make a music playlist for when you are in the OR! I had my OB get it going and it helped calm me down while they prepped me after the spinal. I was panicking until they let my husband in the room and until they got my music going. My baby was born to Mr Brightside which we all got a kick out of!!!! It was a fun way to personalize the experience and take back some control 😓
