C-section N due date

2021-09-30 16:48:11
Hi doctors, Greetings, When i had my sonography on 29th july 2021, fetus was 20 weeks 2 days then my next scan was done on 21st of september 2021 in which fetus was 27 weeks 1 day. My LMP is 12.03.2021. My doctor said my due date is 19.12.2021. I am so confused now. This is my 3rd baby and previous two were born by c section so is it good to wait so long and why my dates are fluctuating. Can i have planned c section at 37 weeks if yes then what would be the date. Please help!! Thanks in advance.♥️

Your EDD according to LMP will be December 17,2021..your scans are showing more or less same gestation age.scans do defer in gestational age the more you approach the third trimester.with history of two previous C sections it's most advisable to undergo elective C section two to three weeks before EDD i.e after completing 37weeks.
Next Steps
get counseling with your obstetrician and require follow up scans for baby parameters and scar strength
